Six years after the death of John Paul II and right on the threshold of his beatification the Polish had been asked in the nationwide poll concerning the late Pope’s influence on their life. As many as 83 per cent of the Pontiff’s countrymen claimed that the Holy Father still exerts a positive influence on them. The information was revealed on 2nd April 2011 on the Polish national TV station i.e. TVP. This somewhat heartening support of the dead Pope, which is being felt by the Polish, who ceaselessly study the teachings of John Paul may be perceived as an influential factor in eliminating the crisis in Polish families. In fact, the crisis in Polish families had always been of greatest importance to the late Pope, who happened to raise the issue in question as early as during his first memorable Pilgrimage to his motherland in June 1979 and eventually he was delving into the matter during his later visits to Poland. John Paul II was demonstrating the crisis in various aspects such as: theological dimension of marriage and family, creating of marital unity in love, family as the source of life and sanctification, family as the first school of love. Undoubtedly, the phenomenon of John Paul II was felt not only by his countrymen but also people all over the world living in the second half of XX century. Therefore, I would love to draw the attention to the aspects of the crisis in polish families according to the late Pope during the International Conference, which is to take place from 13th to 14th June 2011 in Krakow.

This paper acts as a presentation of 2006 research carried out on 1525 individuals (1383 male and 142 female) residing in 39 homeless shelters scattered around 13 provinces of the Republic of Poland. The main reason of homelessness turned out to be unemployment (571 individuals i.e. 37,44% of the whole). It was characteristic that 68,3% of women and 82,0% of men above the age of 40 were not only homeless but also unemployed. In fact, it was proved that the elderly, who had been made redundant in the past, found it more difficult to find a proper job. The research also showed that the unemployment and homelessness act as factors restraining people from getting married and setting up families (34,69%) as well as the reason for marital failure.
