Video / Photo 1: All three services at the monastery church were packed out. Since I could not understand what was being said, I prayed for the churches and people in Poland and sang my pilgrim song when they sang. I particularly like the perspective of this photo with Jesus looking over his sheep. May they know the heart of their Shepherd.

Photo 2: The church at the Wigry Monastary

Photo 3: The spirit of Pope John Paul II is very much present at the monastery.

Photo 4: There were biblical verses painted on the walls here and there. Even though my understanding of Latin and Polish is very limited, I knew right away what this one said. Can you tell as well? (Matthew 19:26b)

Photo 5: There are a lot of lakes in this region of Poland. The monastery sits on Lake Wigry.
