Celebration of the Day of St. Jadwiga Queen

8 June 2003

On 8 June 2003, during a solemn Mass celebrated in the Catholic church in Richmond (Melbourne, Australia) Fr L. Ryba preached very beautiful and touching sermon on St. Jadwiga Queen. During the Mass, Queen Jadwiga’s picture was displayed and at the end of the Mass all people gathered in the church prayed with the words „St. Jadwiga Queen pray for us”. It was very moving moment which will be remembered by us for ever.

Every year, from the initiative of the Queen Jadwiga Foundation, the altar in Wawel Cathedral (Krakow, Poland) is decorated with bouquets of red roses.
