The latter was established by virtue of John Paul Il’s bulla Totus Tuus Poloniae Populus of 25th March 1992. The Roman-Catholic parish in Suchowola Zamojska is very young, in comparison with the surrounding parishes. Its history is confined exclusively to the twentieth century. The territory of the present parish was inhabited in the past by the people of the two rites - the Uniate rite and the Roman-Catholic rite. The Uniate people had their own parish with St George orthodox church in Suchowola, a church which after abolition of the union in the Polish Kingdom in 1875 was changed into an orthodox church. Now the Roman-Catholics belonged to the parish in Krasnobród which up to 1864 (to the moment of annulment) had been administered by Dominicans, and then by diocesan priests. Thus it was to the beginning of the twentieth century, to the time of the First World War. When in 1918 Poland had regained independence a new situation arose. Then the orthodox parish, along with its orthodox church, was transformed in 1919 into a Roman-Catholic parish, by way of due religious and liturgical acts. The further parts of the paper will include the difficulties which the newly erected parish had to face, as well as the manifestations of its religious life. Their detailed character and variety of those difficulties do not permit us to quote them here. Let it suffice to say that all the data have been based on the source material, stored at the moment in the Archdiocesan Archives in Lublin and in the State Archives in Lublin, as well as on printed diocesan catalogues (schematisms).plAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Polandhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/pl/parafieSuchowola Zamojskahistoriażycie religijneparisheshistoryreligious lifeArticle
