This article presents the events preceding the first arrest of Father Stanisław Maciątek in 1939 and subsequent arrest. The ceremony of introducing to Wiżajny a copy of the image of Our Lady of the Gate of Dawn is described in detail which, as one might think, influenced the further course of events. An attempt was made to gather knowledge about the immediate perpetrators of the arrests and their connections to the German diversionary and spy network. It shows how their subsequent fate followed after 2nd world war.

In a natural way, they projected downwards to towns and villages, antagonizing and dividing the Polish society. Many publications dating to just after World War 2 one-sidedly assigned blame to the Catholic Church. The present paper shows such accusations to be wrongful and blatantly untrue. The choice of the parish is not random – it was here that the most renowned conflict around teaching religion in the Łomża diocese took place. Father Witold Balukiewicz’s endeavors to build a modern school and teach religion in the full scope guaranteed by the law and the Father’s later social engagement.

The article explores the biography of Teofilia Jacuńska and her work for the common good in the four parishes in the Suwalszczyzna region. Born in the US, well-educated and multitalented, Jacuńska abandons a promising career in order to come back to Poland and to focus solely on social work for the good of people and the Church. The article discloses facts previously unknown to the public but of vital importance to our national awareness. These stories enrich our knowledge of the past generation and review unfair judgment about people devoted to Church.
