On Sunday, September 16, 2018, we took part in the ceremony of introducing the relics of Bl. Mary Angela Truszkowska into the Parish Church of All Saints in Brzeziny near Kielce. Relics of Bl. Mary Angela Truszkowska was solemnly brought in during the procession at the beginning of the Eucharistic Liturgy at 10 a.m. The Provincial Superior of Cracow presented the relics to the Pastor of the parish. Throughout the whole day, the Sisters presented the faithful not only with the biography of our Foundress, but also with the most important features of her spirituality. They said:

This year's cultural event Cracovia Sacra Night to the Museum and Archives came almost one hundred visitors. Many people visited the exhibition for the first time, although they often pass nearby the Museum and Archives building. There were people who returned to the Museum after the last year's visit. To their pleasant surprise, they could not only see a special exhibition prepared on the 25th Anniversary of the Beatification of Blessed Mary Angela, but also many new elements of the permanent exhibition.

On the day of Saint Clare, August 11, 2018, a pilgrimage group from All Saints' Parish in Brzeziny arrived at the Museum and Archives of Mary Angela. On their pilgrim route they came to the Museum and Archives to get to know Blessed Mary Angela and in this way to prepare for the ceremony of introducing Mary Angela's relics to their Parish Church, which will take place on September 16, 2018.

The Parish priest makes any effort that a growing group of parishioners could get to know the Blessed Mary Angela, who is also considered the Patron of the Sick. This is the second group of pilgrims from this parish that came to Mary Angela. In one month, Blessed Mary Angela will come, in her relics, to the All Saints Church in Brzeziny. May her intercession obtains the necessary graces for all pilgrims, their families and the entire Parish.

On July 25, 2018, the Sisters from the Interprovincial Tertianship visited the Museum and Archives. The main part of the program has taken place in Zakroczym. In the Tertianship participate twelve Sisters from three Polish Provinces under the direction of their Director of formation.

The Sisters went on the pilgrimage to Czestochowa to honor and consecrate themselves anew to Mary, Mother and Lady of our Congregation. The next stage was Krakow, and here, in the first place, Home of Mother Angela, Foundress of the Congregation. An inseparable part of the pilgrimage was also a visit to the Museum and Archives. The Sisters watched a presentation recalling the preparations, the process and the beatification ceremony of Mary Angela Truszkowska, and then they could visit both the Museum and the Archives of their Foundress.

On April 18, 1993, at St. Peter's Square in Rome, the Holy Father John Paul II brought to the glory of the altars Maria Angela Truszkowska, the Foundress of the Felician Congregation.
Today, 25 years later, we thank God for the gift of life, vocation and charism of Blessed Mary Angela, who gave birth to the Felician Congregation.
Thanks be to God!

We invite you to watch a short recollection of that day.

Beatification 1993

On March 11, 2018, as every month, the Sisters from nearby communities gathered in the Museum and Archives for the Encounter with Blessed Mary Angela. On this Lenten Sunday, the Sisters pondered over the excerpts of Mother Angela's letters regarding the CROSS and inviting to accept it lovingly. During the faith sharing the Sisters emphasized the amazing peace flowing from Mother's writings facing the Cross and suffering. Over the years, while reviewing Mothers' scriptures, it is also clearly visible that for such acceptation of the Cross, full of peace and trust to God's Love, Mother was maturing more and more until she became entirely the Victim of Love.

From March 8 to 10, 2018 in our Museum and Archives there was held a Meeting for our Sisters, who work either in the accounting of our institutions, at the secretary office or at the parish offices. After the morning participation in the Symposium devoted to the ministries of the Felician Sisters, the Sisters began a three-day meeting during which they had the opportunity to deepen their bonds with our Blessed Foundress, Mary Angela Truszkowska, they participated in the Transitus in Mother Angela’s cell, and learned the genealogy of ??Mary Angela. The Sisters participated in the presentation in the Archives of the Archdiocese of Krakow, where they could see the originals of documents related to our Foundress and our Congregation, as well as valuable memorabilia of Saint John Paul II.
