"First of all, participation in the Holy Mass was unique. They participated. Noone was there accidentally, that you just stand and think of something else. I guess that the greatest impression, since father Orzechowski speaks very well and knows how to call a spade a spade. The sermon was the most important at that very moment for these people. Silence and applause, these are the signs of this engagement. People were hungry for the truth, for the Word. I remember, I gave a sermon at Zabobrze, walking for catechesis there, after which I was running straight back to the church as it was high time and then I heard someone whispering: " Father do tell them, please do tell them". These communists. " And the priest told them". So people expected the priest to show them, the communists, but he then was left alone wasn't he."

"Maybe I was lucky to be here, on the apprenticeship in Wrocław. I could have ended up on an apprenticeship somewhere far from Wrocław. My diaconal apprenticeship took place at St. Maurice, in the parish in the city centre . And when we found out, I'm not sure how anymore and from whom, that father Orzechowski is supposed to give Holy Mass, we sort of got together. That is all the lads who also had an apprenticeship in Wrocław, a diaconal one. Here, I have a photo of these guys. This one is, as I wrote here: Józef Hałka-these days he is back a secular man, father Stanisław Orzechowski, Adam Prażak, deacon-today already a vicar, parish priest and deacon Eugeniusz Jacyszyn. And we are servicing this Holy Mass with father Orzechowski who was our professor at the seminary, he lectured in pastoral theology."
