The Jubilee Year commemorating the 300th anniversary of the canonization of Saint Stanislaus Kostka has commenced in Poland. The celebrations began with the inauguration of the jubilee in Rostkowo, featuring a procession of the saint’s relics from Przasnysz via horse-drawn carriage to join participants from the Płock Diocese.

During the central jubilee Mass, Archbishop Antonio Guido Filipazzi, the Apostolic Nuncio in Poland, presided alongside regional bishops. In his homily, the Archbishop highlighted the saint’s motto, ‘Ad maiora natus sum’ (I was born for greater things), noting its relevance to younger generations. The festivities include a relay pilgrimage traveling from Vienna to Rome to retrace the saint’s historical path, emphasizing spiritual connections between Poland, Austria, Germany, and Italy.
