Catholic Intelligence1 min read

Pope Leo XIV reflected on the Polish harvest tradition known as dożynki during a general audience. He noted the importance of giving thanks for this year's crops.

The Pope observed that the tradition remains active even among Polish communities abroad, including those that no longer consist of farmers. In Poland, these celebrations involve harvest masses where farmers bring the fruits of their labor to the altar.
