The Inspiring Life of Blessed Cardinal Stefan Wyszyński

Join us for a journey through the life of Blessed Cardinal Stefan Wyszyński, the former Primate of Poland, in our newly released docudrama, “Tu Amerai” (You shall Love). The film showcases the major chapters of Cardinal Wyszyński’s life, highlighting his heroic role in defending the faith and the faithful during the Communist regime. Without Cardinal Wyszyński, there would be no John Paul II, and this film emphasizes the important role he had in mentoring the young Cardinal Wojtyła and laying the groundwork for Poland’s liberation from communism. 

Join Cardinal Marcello Semeraro, Prefect of the Congregation for the Causes of Saints, and other distinguished guests, as they celebrate the beatification of Cardinal Wyszyński on Pope Francis’ behalf, and the screening of “Tu Amerai” for the first time in Italian. Millions of people all over the world have already watched this inspiring documentary, and now the Italian audience will have the chance to learn about the great prince of the Church, Blessed Cardinal Wyszyński. 

At the conclusion of the film, we are reminded of the banner that led Cardinal Stefan Wyszyński’s funeral procession over forty years ago, which read, “God gives us such a father and shepherd once in a thousand years.” Don’t miss this incredible witness to the suffering of the Polish people and the life of a true national hero.
