On October 6, 1941 he was arrested by the Gestapo in Pabianice. He was imprisoned at Dachau concentration camp. He worked for the Poles in Munich and the region near this city. He was an editor of, among others, "Słowo Katolickie", "Słowo Polskie". In 1950 he went to France, where he edited the magazine: "Polska Wierna" and "Słowo Katolickie". He helped in pastoral work in Paris. In 1969 he returned to Germany, where he settled permanently. On 1 November 1970 he became a parish priest of the Polish Catholic Mission in Dortmund. He died there on July 2, 1990. Immediately after the liberation of the camp, he began ministering to his countrymen. By sharing their wanderer’s fate through the written word, he provided opportunities to protect the language, culture and customs learnt in the family home. The documents cited below exemplify his pastoral struggle in the service of God, the Church and the country.
