Educational presence of the Sanctuary of the Thrice-Wonderful Mother on Góra Chełmska in Koszalin

Summary/Abstract: The first sanctuary on Góra Chełmska was built in 1214 and became a famous Marian pilgrimage site in the Middle Ages. The Reformation caused disappearance of the Marian cult on Góra Chełmska. It was only in 1991 that Góra Chełmska regained its religious character by building the sanctuary of Our Lady of the Thrice Wonderful. The specificity of this place is the possibility of obtaining three pilgrimage favors through the intercession of Mary as the educator of a new man in a new community. The Szensztadt Movement, founded by Fr. Josef Kentenich (1885–1968) developing in our diocese. The chapel on Góra Chełmska is one of the filial sanctuaries and bears the name of the Sanctuary of the Covenant. In their formation, the aim is for a person to deepen their Marian spirituality by making a covenant of love and working out a home sanctuary. Important are contributions to the capital of graces that help to live holiness every day and to live faith in God’s providence. The presence of the sanctuary on Góra Chełmska with various pastoral initiatives helps to do this. The emerging Pilgrimage and Tourist Center will also be conducive to the recreational character of this beautiful forested area and will establish culture-forming purposes.
