He built a new monastery and repaired the church with his brother’s help.” With the consent of the Chapter, Fr. Casimir man- aged to have made and distributed a prayer card with the picture of the Founder of the Marian Order. On August 8, 1741, a new General Superior was elected, but Fr. Casimir remained in the office of supe- rior of the monastery in Góra Kalwaria for another six years. Thanks to his good example and mild manner of admonishing, he was instrumental in increasing reli- gious fervor in his confreres. Seeing him tidying up the church and doing all sorts of menial tasks, residents of Góra Kalwaria admired his industriousness and humil- ity. They benefited from his pastoral ministry, service in the confessional and in the pulpit. For several years, the Servant of God was the confessor to the Domini- can Sisters, just like Blessed Stanislaus was in his time. Many years later, the Sisters gave witness to his prudence and great zeal. Father Casimir had a great devotion to Divine Providence, which found its practical expression in his establishing the Confraternity of Divine Providence at the Church of Our Lord’s Cenacle in Góra Kalwaria. 28 P ILGRIMAGE TO THE E ND OF THE E ARTH
