Znaczenie kapłańskiej świętości w katechezie młodzieży
Significance of priestly sancity in the religious education of young people

Summary/Abstract: The author, analyzing Church teaching concerning the holiness of priests, concentrates on its essential relation with the religious education of young people. Beginning with the attempt of defining the term of holiness and going in the direction of giving certain ways of achieving it, the author shows the priest’s relation with Jesus Christ as its foundation. The article draws readers’ attention on the priestly sanctity as the need of the current times; he also accents the connection of the holiness of priests with students’ aspiration to be a saint. A priest, in the role of a religious instruction teacher and religious education teacher, is responsible for not only educating young people during school classes, but also raising their awareness of being indissoluble part of Church. Thanks to his own testimony and holiness, a priest plays the role of an evangelizator among teachers and students in the school environment. Striving after holiness is an obligation arising from the need of permanent priest’s formation, as well as improving his workshop as a religious education teacher.
