We have been waiting for this moment for 225 years - Independence Day and the First Holy Mass Celebrated in the Temple of Divine Providence
“We have been waiting for this moment for 225 years,” emphasized the Metropolitan of Warsaw, Cardinal Kazimierz Nycz, at the beginning of the first Mass celebrated in the Temple of Divine Providence in Warsaw’s District of Wilanow. On November 11th, Poland’s Independence Day, this church, under construction by the Poles since the adoption of the Constitution in 1791, was opened to the faithful. The work on this edifice—intended to be an ex-voto—was impeded first by the partition of Poland, then by World War II and the communist government.

May 28 - first liturgical memorial of the Blessed Primate of the Millennium
The first liturgical commemoration after the beatification is so important because we somehow introduce the cult of the new Blessed and invite people to get to know him and pray through his intercession - Cardinal Kazimierz Nycz, the Metropolitan Archbishop of Warsaw, stresses. On Saturday, May 28, at 7 p.m. a Mass will be celebrated at the Warsaw Archcathedral under the Cardinal’s presidency. “We will pray for the canonization of Primate Wyszynski”, says Cardinal Nycz. On the same day in the morning, thirteen deacons of the Warsaw Archdiocese will be ordained to the priesthood in the Shrine of the Divine Providence.
