Skreczko, Adam2024-08-262024-08-262013Communio, 2013, R. 33, nr 1 (181), s. 61-86.0208-7995http://theo-logos.pl/xmlui/handle/123456789/19885Pastoral programmes in Poland have always supported a family. The article weighs the problem, focusing on the first initiative of this kind, which was the Great Novena of the Millennium (1956-1966). It was when Cardinal Stephen Wyszyński and the Episcopate of Poland gave the priority to married and family life. The analysis done shows that further pastoral programmes also dedicated much space to family problems. The Christian idea of married and family life proposed by Catholic Church in Poland still has to struggle with different concepts of the problem, formerly a Communist approach, and today with a liberal one.plAttribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Polandhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/pl/teologiatheologyrodzinafamilyKościółChurchKościół w PolsceChurch in Polandduszpasterstwoministryprogram duszpasterskipastoral programmeobrona rodzinydefence of the familyWielka Nowenna TysiącleciaGreat Novena of the MillenniumArticle
