On the basis of spiritual itinerarium the article shows the richness of the spirit of
Archbishop Zygmunt Szczęsny Feliński. He was famous for love he had for God and people. It
is worth mentioning here as well that love he had was full of diligence, trust in God, openness
and frankness to others with feeling of reality, wisdom, prediction of consequences, feeling of
responsibility and commitment even when it involved high risk. His spiritual way led him through
multicultural, multidenominational and multinational communities where problems concerning
religious and national identity and the related with them tensions, prejudice and fears played a
fundamental role. In this context the article asks a question what it would be if his opinion was
approved of and what if he was given a permission to realize his goals. In fact, it is also a
question about an attitude towards Christianity, its place and usefulness today in Poland, Russia,
Ukraine, contemporary united Europe and finally in the world experiencing more and more
globalization.
Key words: archbishop Zygmunt Szczęsny Feliński, spirituality, love for God and people, the
service for the Church, social commitment
