On Saturday, December 7, we celebrated 170 years of the Congregation of the Sisters of Mary Immaculate. The solemn thanksgiving Mass was presided over by Archbishop Joseph Kupny, Metropolitan of Wroclaw. The Eucharist, attended by seven bishops, many priests, sisters from various religious congregations and numerous friends of our religious family, was celebrated in the Parish of the Blessed Virgin Mary on the Sand in Wroclaw . It is here that the tomb of the congregation’s founder, the Servant of God Fr. Jan Schneider, an extraordinary defender and protector of women, is located.
