Magierski, Jarosław2025-06-242025-06-242023Studia Bydgoskie, 2023, Tom 15, s. 17-40.1898-9837https://theo-logos.pl/handle/123456789/32812A large part of the history of Polish subjectivity is marked by the presence of the Roman Catholic Church, which was and is part of a network of administrative, cultural and social connections. It is the largest religious community in Poland, and thus remains for millions of Poles an essential reference point in what is good and of worth. Therefore, in the context of the statement that suicide prevention isa task for everyone, it is worth paying attention to the role of the Church community in suicide prevention and postvention, especially in the aspect of crises faced by the young generation. In this work, I try to look at the history of the Church’s relation to suicide and stress the fact that suicidal issues are to become a platform for meeting and dialogue between various communities for which caring for the individual is an overriding goal. I also highlighted the space providing an opportunity to successfully sensitise society and debunk stereotypes and myths that have arisen around suicide. The space I mean here is the Papageno Team – Poland’s first pastoral ministry and support zone for people in a suicidal crisis and experiencing mourning after the suicide of a loved one.plCC-BY-SA - Uznanie autorstwa - Na tych samych warunkachsamobójstwoKościółmłodzieżdzieciwsparcie młodzieżycierpieniewsparciesamobójstwa wśród dziecisamobójstwa wśród młodzieżyduszpasterstwoduszpasterstwo młodzieżypsychologiaduchowo-religijne wsparcie młodzieżypsychologiczne wsparcie młodzieżyterapiasuicideChurchyouthchildrenyouth supportsufferingsupportsuicide amond childrensuicide among youthpastoral careministryyouth pastoral carepsychologyspiritual-religious youth supportpsychological youth supporttherapyArticle
