Father Casimir Wyszynski

Below: a metal cilice which Fr. Casimir used for mortification. This device was commonly used by clergy and religious of the day to mortify the flesh. Cutlery that belonged to Father Casimir. More of his personal items can be seen on display at the museum in the Marian monastery on Mount Balsamão. These beads, on which Fr. Casimir recited the Chaplet of the Ten Virtues of the B.V.M. , were found at his graveside. Father Casimir strongly believed that meditating upon and praying the Chaplet brought great spiritual strength and consolation. Averse (left) and reverse (right) of the Chaplet medal.
