Abp Józef Górzyński celebrates 25th anniversary of Caritas Hospice in Olsztyn
Archbishop Józef Górzyński celebrated the 25th anniversary of the Caritas Hospice of the Archdiocese of Warmia by presiding over a thanksgiving Mass at the Church of the Sacred Heart of Jesus in Olsztyn. Paweł Zięba, the director of Caritas of the Archdiocese of Warmia, welcomed staff and guests to the jubilee celebrations. During his remarks, Zięba expressed gratitude to God for the years of service provided to the sick and asked for prayers for patients, employees, volunteers, and supporters. In his homily, Archbishop Górzyński spoke about the inherent dignity of every person, noting that Christ reveals a divine dignity even in those rejected or ignored by the world. He observed that modern society often measures humanity by success and tends to reject those experiencing hardship or failure. The archbishop stated that recognizing the depth of humanity in the most vulnerable and helpless people is a central dimension of Christian teaching.
