Apostolate of women according to Blessed Stefan Cardinal Wyszyński
Apostolate of women according to Blessed Stefan Cardinal Wyszyński

Summary/Abstract: In the article, the author dealt with the teaching of Bl. Primate Stefan Wyszyński on the apostolate of women. In the first part, he presented the tasks and mission of women in the Church and society, and in the second one, their baptismal vocation to the apostolate. He included a sum- mary of the presented content in the conclusion. The author developed the issue by analyzing, on the one hand, the public statements of the Blessed Primate regarding women and the apostolate, and on the other hand, his teaching addressed to the members of the Secular Institute of Helpers of Mary of Jasna Góra, Mother of the Church, commonly known as the ‘Eights’. The article shows, among others, that Blessed Stefan identified the vocation of women to the apostolate with the vo- cation of men, however, he pointed to its specificity resulting from the conditions of the woman’s nature and her tasks in the Church and society.
