The welcome of Pope Francis by Archbishop Stanislaw Gadecki
Welcoming the Pope at Wawel, Polish Episcopal Conference President Abp. Stanislaw Gadecki said that the pontiff's pilgrimage came during the Extraordinary Jubilee of Mercy. "The church in Poland feels a special responsibility in this area. This is because the message of mercy is closely connected with a daughter of our country, St. Faustina Kowalska, as well as with St. Pope John Paul II, both of whom - through their lives and their writing - brought its value closer to us," he remarked.
