Lest You Remain
13. For the greater glory of God, as well as for the good of the canonization, we shall try to describe and make public the circumstances of the miracle after the proclamation of the Beatification decree. Naturally, we should obtain beforehand the agreement of all interested parties (mother of the child, doctor, etc.) Persons in charge: Frs. W. Skóra, D. Ma ? ewski, and A. Paku = a. Preliminary consultations with the interested parties have been already conducted. 14. After the Beatification we shall establish a contact with pro-life move- ments and, upon presenting this incident to them, we shall propose them to hold a Day of Thanksgiving for saving the life of an unborn child through the intercession of Fr. Papczy < ski. 15. We should try to get the National Conference of Bishops in Poland inter- ested in the matter and to prepare a draft of a pastoral letter (or a communiqué) of the National Conference of Bishops on the occasion of the Beatification of the Founder of the first Polish Order and an imminent personality in the history of the Catholic Church in Poland. V. T ASKS AT H AND As we all hope, a positive opinion in the Founder’s cause is near at hand. Thus, there are tasks that require our immediate attention: 1. Drafts of liturgical texts for the liturgical remembrance/feast of the new Blessed (with indication of a desirable date) must be prepared for the Congregation of the Divine Cult. We also need: a) To draft the main prayer; person in charge—Fr. M. Zachara; b) To select appropriate liturgical texts for the celebration of the liturgical remembrance/feast: First Reading, Psalm, Gospel and Prayers of the Faith- ful; person in charge—Fr. M. Zachara; c) To select appropriate excerpts from Fr. Papczy < ski's writings to be used dur- ing the Office of Readings in the Liturgy of the Hours, as an addition for our use only; person in charge—Fr. M. Zachara with Fr. A. Paku = ab assistance; d) To select a date for the remembrance of the Blessed. Customary, it is the day of his death. However, in Poland the day of September 17 th is already assigned for Bl. Szsz " sny Feli < ski’s memorial; the previous day—September 16 th is also an obligatory remembrance; the following day—September 18 th is a liturgical feast. Another possibility is May 18 th —Fr.
