Meeting for the Senior Citizens

On June 15, 2016 in the afternoon our Museum and Archives was visited by Senior Citizens from the Parish Senior. They came together with their priest, Fr. Albert Wołkiewicz and the Sisters from the Congregation of the Canonesses of the Holy Spirit: Sr. Fidelisa and Sr. Benigna. Our guests visited the entire Museum in order to deepen their knowledge of Bl. Mary Angela of whom they heard during one of their regular meetings from our Sisters of the Province of Krakow.

Meeting for the Sisters from the Second Novitiate

On June 13, 2016 the Museum and Archives hosted the Sisters from the Second Novitiate of the Krakow Province with their Director, preparing themselves to make perpetual vows. The aim of the meeting was not visiting the Museum, because each Sister was in our Museum and Archives already many times, as much as to participate in the presentation on: The spirit of Atonement in the Felician Congregation and Devotion to the Holy Face.

Encounters with Blessed Mary Angela Truszkowska

Today, June 12, 2016, for the last time in this school year we had Encounter with the Blessed Mary Angela in our Museum and Archives. Today recalled the entire history of the cloister at the beginning of our Congregation, so as to better understand the context of the letter of Bl. Mary Angela to Sister Maria Isabella Lebenstein.

The sisters shared what caught their attention in Mother Angela?s letter: her humility and concern for the cloistered Sisters. It is this very letter of which words permanently inscribed themselves in the Testament of the Founders: You have to be the rock for the future, on which the future generations are to be supported.

Sisters Servants of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus

Today, June 10, 2016, our Museum was visited by another group of Sisters Servants of the Sacred Heart of Jesus who were walking in the footsteps of their Foundress Blessed Mother Clara Szczęsna. Again, we could show the Sisters the place and some memorabilia associated not only with our Congregation, but also with their own Foundress and the beginnings of the Congregation of the Sisters of the Sacred Heart.

Sisters Servants of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus

Today, May 17, 2016, in the morning hours another group of Sisters Servants of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, came to visit our Museum and Archives. This year, each retreat group of Sisters, had planned to visit places connected with their Blessed Foundress, Blessed Mother Clare Szczęsna. The beginnings of the Congregation of the Sisters of the Sacred Heart took place in the vicinity of our house, and Mother Foundress herself used to come to our chapel for adoration. At the time, the chapel was in the room where the Archives is situated. Indeed, it is a special place.

Encounters with Blessed Mary Angela Truszkowska

In the afternoon on April 10, 2016 some of the Sisters from the surrounding communities came to the Meeting with Blessed Mary Angela. The meeting was dedicated to Blessed Mary Angela?s letters to Sister Mary Hedwig Sliwinska. All excerpts given to the Sisters for reflection were taken from the letters written in the years of 1861-1863. Mother Angela was at that time only 36-38 years old, and Sister Hedwig ? 20-22 years old. Already then, she was entrusted with very responsible duties. Sister Hedwig was responsible for the Shelters, and in 1863, during the January uprising, she was responsible for all the field hospitals, where the sisters worked.
