Summary/Abstract: The article presents an example of Roman Catholic clergy, a secular priest – Fr. Eugeniusz Jankiewicz and the religious father – Jesuit Fr. Bronisław Sroka SJ, saw the birth of Solidarity and how they joined its activities. Getting to know their view of Solidarity was possible thanks to the reports they provided to the Institute of Solidarity Heritage in Gdańsk in 2021. The above mentioned reports are dominated by the necessity to provide various pastoral ministry resulting from the fulfillment of priestly functions. In the testimony of Fr. Bronisław Sroka SJ there is a special national factor. Both accounts contain spiritual views with different lives.
