This sacred picture, enshrined and venerated at the renowned Marian Shrine in Poland, was first brought from Jerusalem through Constantinople and was bestowed to the Princess of Ruthenia. It was brought to Poland in 1382 through the efforts of Ladislaus of Opole who had discovered it in a castle at Belz. To ensure its protection, he invited the Monks of Saint Paul the First Hermit from Hungary to be its guardians. From this time onward, the historic records of the painting are documented and authenticated by the miracles associated with the painting. In 1430, a devastating attack on the Polish Shrine resulted in tragic losses and the damaging of the holy picture. To this very day, despite the attempts to repair the damage, the slashes on the face of the Virgin Mary are still visible. The foundation of the Monastery and Shrine in Czestochowa began with a small wooden church. Subsequent development ( ) led to the construction of the present day basilica and defense wall which surrounds the sacred buildings. Under the heroic leadership of the Prior of the Monastery, Father Augustine Kordecki, the Shrine withstood the attacks of the Swedish Invasion of This great victory proved to be a tremendous boost to the morale of the entire Polish nation. As a result, King Jan Casimir, in 1656, made a solemn vow proclaiming the Mother of God to be the "Queen of the Polish Crown" and the Shrine of Jasna Gora to be the "Mount of Victory" and a spiritual capital for Poland. During the years of Poland's partition ( ) the Shrine of Jasna Gora became a vibrant link for the Polish people with their homeland. The holy painting enshrined at Czestochowa beamed as a lighthouse of hope during the painful years of national hardships and defeats. Following the restoration of national independence in 1918, pilgrimages to the Polish Shrine grew in number and size. As World War II ended, a nation devastated by the scourges of war drew new strength and courage from the Shrine to rebuild and recover from the war. Today the Shrine of Czestochowa in Poland attracts millions of worshipers and tourists who come to honor the miraculous image of Our Lady of Czestochowa.

5 Uroczystość NMP Częstochowskiej, obchodzona 26 sierpnia, ściśle związana jest z sanktuarium maryjnym w Częstochowie, w którym od końca XIV wieku otaczany jest wielką czcią obraz Bożej Rodzicielki. Pochodzenie obrazu, osnute legendami, pozostaje dotąd niewyjaśnione. Prawdopodobnie pochodzi ze wschodu i stanowi typ ikony Panagia Hodegetria, czyli Najświętsza Przewodniczka. Jasnogórski wizerunek Maryi bardzo przypomina bizantyjską ikonę z końca X wieku, znajdującą się w rzymskiej Bazylice Matki Bożej Większej. Obraz Matki Bożej do Częstochowy sprowadził Władysław Opolczyk, książę opolski, syn Bolesława II księcia Opolskiego, z zamku w Bełżcu gdzie cieszył się szczególnym kultem wiernych i umieścił w ufundowanym przez siebie klasztorze, do którego sprowadził z Węgier ojców paulinów. Obraz bardzo szybko zasłynął cudami. W roku 1429 król Władysław Jagiełło w liście do papieża Marcina V pisał o tym miejscu, że na Jasnej Górze koło Częstochowy dzieją się często tajemnice licznych cudów. Jasna Góra powoli stawała się głównym ośrodkiem kultu maryjnego w całej Polsce i zarazem duchową stolicą naszej Ojczyzny. Obraz przedstawia Maryję z Dzieciątkiem Jezus na ręku. W 1430 roku miał miejsce napad na klasztor i częściowe uszkodzenie obrazu. Jakby na przekór wydarzenie to przyczyniło się do rozwoju kultu Matki Bożej z Częstochowy, zwanej także Czarną Madonną. Z czasem klasztor na Jasnej Górze stał się twierdzą obronną stawiającą czoło najazdowi szwedzkiemu w 1655 r. Najazd na klasztor nastąpił już po wybudowaniu umocnień zewnętrznych w tym wałów, co w zasadniczy sposób wpłynęło na skuteczną obronę. Obrona klasztoru lotem błyskawicy rozeszła się po całym kraju i jak później opisywał Henryk Sienkiewicz, duch tego zwycięstwa pozwolił uwierzyć narodowi w ostateczne zwycięstwo. Papież Pius XI, w roku 1931 ustalił obchód święta na 26 sierpnia. Cztery lata później zatwierdzono specjalne teksty liturgiczne przeznaczone na święto Matki Bożej Częstochowskiej. Od 1956 roku święto obchodzone jest w całej Polsce. RUCH RODZIN NAZARE- TAŃSKICH Jest to międzynarodowy katolicki ruch apostolstwa rodzin, którego celem jest uświęcenie członków poprzez pogłębienie życia Ewangelią w oparciu o wspólnotę życia z Chrystusem w codzienności, naśladując Maryję. Jeżeli pragniesz włączyć się w to dzieło, chcesz pogłębić swoje życie duchowe i wiarę zapraszamy na spotkania w poniedziałek o 7:00 PM (od 17 września 2018) w górnej salce w centrum parafialnym. Spotkania poprowadzi ks Łukasz Kleczka SDS Sulla pena di morte Il Papa Francesco, nell udienza concessa in data 11 maggio 2018 al sottoscritto prefetto della Congregazione per la dottrina della fede, ha approvato la seguente nuova redazione del numero 2267 del Catechismo della Chiesa cattolica, disponendo che venga tradotta nelle diverse lingue e inserita in tutte le edizioni del suddetto Catechismo. Pena di morte Per molto tempo il ricorso alla pena di morte da parte della legittima autorità, dopo un processo regolare, fu ritenuta una risposta adeguata alla gravità di alcuni delitti e un mezzo accettabile, anche se estremo, per la tutela del bene comune. Oggi è sempre più viva la consapevolezza che la dignità della persona non viene perduta neanche dopo aver commesso crimini gravissimi. Inoltre, si è diffusa una nuova comprensione del senso delle sanzioni penali da parte dello Stato. Infine, sono stati messi a punto sistemi di detenzione più efficaci, che garantiscono la doverosa difesa dei cittadini, ma, allo stesso tempo, non tolgono al reo in modo definitivo la possibilità di redimersi. Pertanto la Chiesa insegna, alla luce del Vangelo, che «la pena di morte è inammissibile perché attenta all inviolabilità e dignità della persona», e si impegna con determinazione per la sua abolizione in tutto il mondo.
