Usually, the Presbyterian congregation in Kraków meets in an ordinary building. On Sunday, they moved to a Lutheran church building to be able to welcome Ukrainian churchgoers.

Romanian pastor sends heart cry to the West

"We forgot in the last decades to be prepared; we forgot to be ready for the war, for the disasters. We became too lazy; we became too comfortable. Now we got a slap on our face, on our heart. This will guide us back to the Lord. Eastern Europe and our society have to return to God and should repent. The hard way."

Weekly column: Christian life in Poland: In this Catholic city you can see traces of Jewish milk and honey

It was the first time this friend of mine visited me in Krakow. I told him, I would take him to Kazimierz, the Jewish quarter. It was on a Saturday. My friend asked me why bother going there if everything would be closed on the Jewish holy day. I was confused for a minute and then suddenly connected the dots saying: No, my friend! It is indeed called a “Jewish quarter” but not because Jews live there today. It is called so because of the history of that part of the city!
