Father Franciszek Blachnicki lived the last five years of his life in the International Centre for the Evangelisation of Light-Life Movement “Marianum”, which he founded in Carlsberg, Germany. The study of the last years of Father Blachnicki’s life reveals many themes related not only to his evangelising work. It points to various difficulties and obstacles, coming not only from the different state system in which he found himself, but also from the multiple influences of the Polish communist authorities who tried to discredit him and to disintegrate the environment he created. Despite these difficulties, the Servant of God managed to read many signs of the times during those years. Father Franciszek Blachnicki treated his stay outside Poland as an act of Divine Providence and a call to serve not only the Church but also the Homeland. He left behind a personal example of consistent faith and organised a thriving formation centre that had an apostolic impact, especially on Polish communities. He was convinced of the approaching collapse of the communist system. From this perspective, he spoke about the postsovieticum stage and the need to prepare Catholic elites who, based on Catholic social teaching, would undertake service for the common good.
