Stefan Jasienski was a Second Lieutenant in the Polish Home Army, the underground Army that the Poles raised under the noses of the occupying Germans in Poland during World War II. He was captured by the Germans in September 1944 and sent to Auschwitz. At Auschwitz he was kept in Block 11, Cell 21 and he was murdered by his captors sometime in January 1945. During the time that he had, he carved religious images on the wall of his cell. In that place of despair and death he brought the Eternal Light of Christ. Mission accomplished Lieutenant.
Christ wins. Not the Nazis. Not the Communists. Not the Democrats. Not the LGBTQs. Christ wins.
Stefan Jasienski was able to replicate the stamp on his own heart to the prison wall, most beautifully too.
My soul glorifies the Lord, my spirit rejoices in God, my Saviour. He looks on his servant in her lowliness; henceforth all ages will call me blessed.
Consecration to Jesus through Our Immaculata is like being given the boarding pass to depart from this valley of tears and arrive at our true homeland. Oh.. it doesn’t mean that one can’t loose his pass or have it revoked due to the ravages of sin, unrepentant attitude and indifference to truth. For the majority however, the consecrated individual grows into a likeness of Christ. One that the Father Almighty notices and is pleased to welcome home after boarding that last transport. ALL Aboard!
Ad Jesum per Marium.
He was from Vilnius, and that’s where Francis the Worst has exiled Abp.Ganswein. Most interesting “coincidence.”
God writes straight with crooked lines.
