From the very beginning, the development of the forms of organized charity in the Roman Catholic and Greek Catholic Churches revealed a clear disproportion in its scale and dynamics. Massive Polonization of Ruthenian elites caused the Orthodox Church first and then the Greek Catholic one to irrevocably lose wealthy and influential patrons who had been providing patronage not only of the church organizations, but also of all the spheres of church activity, including charity work. In comparison to the Roman Catholic Church, the poor financial situation of the Greek Catholic institution as well as sluggish activity of its clergymen within the community condemned its charity work to a slowdown. In the second half of the 19th century, the recovery of the Greek Catholic Church after a slump and the development of its structures based on the models borrowed from the Roman Catholic church acted as catalysts for the revival of different forms of organized charity in Galicia. It was noticeable in establishing new active congregations modelled after the Roman Catholic ones and setting up modern charitable organizations in all the Greek Catholic dioceses in the Interwar Period.

In the face of repression by the communist authorities, secret cooperation between Catholic Churches in Poland and Czechoslovakia was established after 1956. One of the least known and researched aspects of the assistance provided by the Polish Church was secret ordinations. In total, in the years 1958-1989, Polish bishops secretly ordained at least 53 priests from Czechoslovakia, including 48 Slovaks and 5 Czechs. They were mostly representatives of religious orders, mainly Salesians, Capuchins, Verbists and Jesuits. The most intensive period of support for the brothers in faith beyond the southern border were the years 1976-1981, when as many as 26 Slovaks and Czechs were ordained in Poland. The established list of ordained priests is undoubtedly incomplete, as few written documents have survived from this underground activity. The whole issue of cooperation between the Polish and Czechoslovakian churches during the communist period requires further, in-depth research.

W obliczu represji ze strony władz komunistycznych doszło po 1956 r. do nawiązania tajnej współpracy między Kościołami katolickimi w Polsce i Czechosłowacji. Jednym z najmniej znanych i zbadanych aspektów pomocy udzielanej przez polski Kościół były tajne święcenia kapłańskie. Ogółem w latach 1958-1989 polscy biskupi tajnie wyświęcili co najmniej 53 księży z Czechosłowacji, w tym 48 Słowaków i 5 Czechów. Byli to w zdecydowanej większości przedstawiciele zgromadzeń zakonnych, przede wszystkim salezjanów, kapucynów, werbistów i jezuitów. Najbardziej intensywnym okresem wsparcia dla braci w wierze zza południowej granicy okazały się lata 1976-1981, gdy wyświęcono w Polsce aż 26 Słowaków i Czechów. Ustalona lista wyświęconych księży jest z pewnością niepełna, bowiem z tej konspiracyjnej działalności zachowało się niewiele dokumentów na piśmie. Całe zagadnienie współpracy Kościoła polskiego i czechosłowackiego w okresie komunizmu wymaga dalszych, pogłębionych badań.

Seventy-year history of the Polish Ecumenical Council and its dialogical character is particularly significant for the history of the Ecumenical Church Council and the history of a dialogical attitude of the Roman Catholic Church in Poland. The Roman Catholic Church has been involved in the ecumenical dialogue since the constitution Lumen gentium (1964) which was issued during the II Vatican Council, the decree on ecumenism Unitatis redintegratio (1964) and the encyclical Ut unum sint (1995), which was written by the pope John Paul II, who tried to treat an ecumenical dialogue as an important ecumenical factor; it was understood both widely (as an ecumenical dimension of all ecumenical activities) and narrowly (as a doctrinal dialogue), which makes us pay particular attention to local dialogical structures that aim to get rid of still existing discrepancies, both in doctrines and practical forms of cooperation. It is evidenced by the history of mutual relationships between local churches in Poland, which conduct bilateral and multilateral dialogues. “Ecumenical Encyclopedia of Poland (1964–2014)” was issued in 2016 and it stresses the importance of inter-denominational doctrinal dialogues in Poland as an unusual achievement which plays “a key role in the striving for visible unity” of Christians from various traditions, which in the last 70 years have been gathered in the ecumenical structure of the Polish Ecumenical Council in its dialogical relations with the Roman Catholic church and vice versa of the Roman Catholic Church with the Polish Ecumenical Council. The following commissions played a particular role in this process: Mixed Commission consisting of the PEC members and the members from the Ecumenism Commission of the Polish Episcopate and Dialogue Sub-commission. This was the aim of the author of this article, who on the basis of multilateral dialogue related to the sacrament of baptism, attempted to confirm the thesis “the impossible becomes possible”, which is proclaimed by the ecumenists. Consequently, brotherly and sisterly relations can deepen in order to “achieve unity in truth”. For this reason the first part of this article presents the origins and development of the Polish Ecumenical Council; the second part contains ecumenical and dialogic initiatives of the Council and Roman Catholic church, while the third one demonstrates the results of local dialogues in Poland, which were conducted by the above mentioned church subjects; it is based on the incredible example regarding “the sacrament of baptism as a sign of unity” by which the “Declaration of Polish churches on the threshold of the third millennium” confirms bilateral dialogues, which aimed to finalize mutual recognition of the importance of baptism in the above mentioned ecclesial structures.
