Istniejąca od 1925 r. diecezja katowicka, podniesiona w 1992 r. do godności archidiecezji, w przededniu jubileuszu swojego istnienia, dnia 20 listopada 2016 r. przekazała ludowi bożemu Kościoła katowickiego dar w postaci uchwał II Synodu Archidiecezji Katowickiej. Ma on pogłębić nauczanie Soboru Watykańskiego II i ożywić wiarę, nadzieję i miłość wiernych tego Kościoła partykularnego. Ukazane w niniejszym artykule normy dotyczące posługi nauczania w Kościele katowickim jawią się jako narzędzia mogące pomóc w realizowaniu tego celu.

The Second Vatican Council valued the families, the lay people, and their apostolate by emphasizing that the lay faithful are the part of the Church that is the community of the People of God, and they participate in the triple mission of Christ, the grace of the common priesthood is granted to them and they have their own proper vocation. On the canvas of this teaching, John Paul II established the Pontifical Council for the Laity and the Pontifical Council for the Family, which Pope Francis transformed into the Dicastery for the Laity, the Family and Life. This department directs the contemporary the apostolate of the laity and families in the Church.

The Second Vatican Council set forth a teaching according to which the women’s mission of evangelization and missionary activity is a very speci c one. e teaching nds its realization in the universal church legislation and the legislation of the Church in Poland. e example of the latter are the nal documents of the Second Plenary Council of the Episcopal Con- ference of Poland. Women take their part in the mission of evangelization and sancti cation, as well as, in marriage and family life.

The development of the Pontifical University of John Paul II in Krakow requires a change in law that regulates the church university. The Apostolic See approved a new statute of the school in question in 2015. The new law is based on the Apostolic Constitution Sapientia christiana and puts an emphasis on the following ideas: church and evangelizing characteristics of the school. The law also underlines autonomy of the University towards Polish state and, at the same time, it declares the openness of the school for multidimensional cooperation with the state.

Człowiek stworzony na obraz i podobieństwo Boże powołany jest do pracy, która jest jego podstawowym obowiązkiem i prawem. Nauczanie Jana Pawła II o godności pracy wypływającej z godności osoby ludzkiej oraz o prawach i obowiązkach związanych z pracą stanowi ważny fragment społecznej nauki Kościoła, która ma swoje korzenie w Ewangelii, która dynamicznie była głoszona przez papieży XIX i XX wieku oraz znajduje kontynuację w nauczaniu papieża Benedykta XVI i papieża Franciszka.

Allium ampeloprasum var. ampeloprasum, commonly referred to as great headed garlic (GHG) represents the genus Allium, which comprises plant species that have been used in human diet for thousands of years. This paper presents the first comparative studies focused on the nutritional and health-enhancing properties of locally grown GHG, referred to as GHG-L, in comparison with Allium sativum. The genetic comparative analysis has shown that the examined GHG-L is phylogenetically related to both A. ampeloprasum var. porrum (leek) and A. sativum (garlic). The cloning of the internal transcribed sequence region (ITS) of the ribosomal DNA gene cluster of GHG-L showed two different ITS alleles—GHG-L(a) and GHG-L(b)—which were found to be characteristics of ribotype 1 and 2, identical to those of the hexaploid forms of the A. ampeloprasum GHG group. The analysis of phenotypic and morphological traits in GHG-L indicates that the aboveground part of the species is similar that of leek, whereas the underground part resembles garlic. Biochemical analyses were carried out in order to assess the nutritional and pharmacological values of GHG-L in comparison with garlic. The analyses of amino acids and secondary metabolites as well as the antioxidant activity in the leaves and bulbs in GHG-L and garlic revealed that GHG-L had remarkably higher nutritional values than garlic, and the bulbs were considerably richer in bioactive substances than the leaves. It can be concluded that GHG-L has high consumption values, exceeding the nutritional and health-enhancing properties of garlic; hence, it is a good candidate for functional foods.

On 27 April 2104, that is, on the day of canonization of John Paul II, pope Francis called him – „The Pope of families”. He did it due to St. John Paul’s immense contribution to the development of the church teaching on marriage and family. Of particular significance within the teaching of St. John Paul was the Apostolic Exhortation Familiaris Consortio. The leading ideas of the document are as follows: sacramental marriage, marriage covenant, tasks of the family, and family as „the domestic Church”. Reflecting on the documents of the Third Extraordinary General Assembly of the Synod of Bishops held in the Vatican from 5 to 19 October 2014, dedicated to marriage and family, and preparing for the Synod of Bishops on the Family that was held in 2015, it is expedient to recall the teaching of St. John Paul II on this matter.

Ostropest plamisty (Silybum marianum (L.) Gaertn.) jest obecnie jednym z ważniejszych gatunków roślin leczniczych uprawianym na plantacjach zielarskich. Surowcem zielarskim ostropestu jest owoc (Silybi mariani fructus) zawierający kompleks flawonolignanów określanych jako sylimaryna. Sylimaryna wykazuje działanie ochronne i regenerujące względem uszkodzonych komórek wątroby. Działanie ochronne sylimaryny wiąże się z jej aktywnością antyoksydacyjną, przeciwzapalną, przeciwwirusową, a także odtruwającą. Związek ten wpływa również na syntezę RNA i DNA. Sylimaryna jest obecnie szeroko stosowana jako środek terapeutyczny w leczeniu wielu ostrych i przewlekłych chorób wątroby. Ostatnie badania dowodzą, że sylimaryna jest skutecznym lekiem przeciwwirusowym w przypadku wirusa zapalenia wątroby typu C (HCV). Wskazywana jest także jako obiecujący środek przeciwnowotworowy, przeciwcukrzycowy i nefroochronny. W lecznictwie i kosmetologii zastosowanie ma także olej z nasion ostropestu, bogaty w cenne kwasy tłuszczowe, fosfolipidy i witaminę E.

The crowning achievement of the development of the Pontifical University of John Paul II and especially the Institute of Canon Law was erection on March 19th, 2014 by the Apostolic See the Faculty of Canon Law. The faculty in question is an academic community to which belong: the authorities of the Faculty, the academic teachers, and, of course, the students. The main aim of the institution is caring out the scientific research in the field of canon law, graduation of the students and granting them the degrees in canon law, and preparation the stuff for the work in the diocesan tribunals or other church institutions.

The apostolic constitution Sapietnia christiana stipulates coherency and compatibility of the rules for ecclesiastical universities and other universities of the different ecclesiastical regions. The rules are fully implemented in the Pontifical University of John Paul II in Krakow. The status of the university and its program have their sources both in the canonical rules and civil laws, and also in the rich scientific tradition of Krakow. The system of career advancement of the academic teachers embodies polish law. As a result, Polish authorities recognize the scientific titles and the scientific degrees granted by the university.

Fragaria vesca (wild strawberry) belongs to the Rosaceae family. Besides the leaves (Fragariae folium) and roots (Fragariae radix), the aromatic fruits (Fragariae fructus) of wild strawberry are also herbal materials used in medicine. The aim of this study was to compare the value of phytochemical and antioxidant activity of wild strawberry fruits (Fragaria vesca L.). The fruits were analyzed regarding their secondary metabolites contents (flavonoids, sum of phenolic acids, tannins, anthocyanins, DPPH), depending on the origin of the raw material (from natural habitats vs. cultivation). According to the obtained results, raw material originating from natural habitats contained significantly more flavonoids (0.559 mg∙g -1 ), compared to fruits harvested from cultivation (0.472 mg∙g -1 , on average). Mean concentration of phenolic acids ranged from 1.648 mg∙g -1 – 2.348 mg∙g -1 , although the wild form was characterized by higher levels of examined substances. Tannins are an important fraction of phenolic compounds; their content in studied fruits ranged from 2.2% (from cultivation) – 3.0% (from natural habitats). When comparing the average contents of anthocyanins in the studied materials, it was revealed that remarkably more of these compounds were recorded in wild strawberry fruits harvested from natural habitats vs. those from cultivations: 132 mg∙100 g -1 vs. 90 mg∙100 g -1 . A difference was indicated with respect to the ability of DPPH radical

The academic community of the Pontifical University of John Paul II in Krakow is constituted by: the authorities, the academic teachers, the lecturers, the administration office workers, and the students, of course. By the common and combined effort, they all must strive for continuation and development of the prominent past of the university. By doing this, the university will build up its future for the sake of the Church, Poland, and Europe.

The Pontifical University of John Paul II in Cracow is an ecclesiastical university. The Apostolic Constitution Sapientia christiana and the statute of the university regulate its governance. The collegial bodies and the natural persons exercise the authority in question. Among the first group one can count: the Congregation for Catholic Education, the Polish Episcopal Conference, the University Senate; while the second category consists of: the Great Chancellor, the vice Great Chancellor, Rector, and deans of faculties.

An artichoke is a commonly cultivated vegetable in the Mediterranean region. It is cultivated for an undeveloped flower head. Because of high thermal requirements in Poland the artichoke is cultivated as an annual plant. In the years 2009-2011 the research on the influence of gibberelic acid (GA 3 ) on yielding and morphology of artichoke plants was conducted. In order to establish the optimal date of spraying and development stage of plants GA 3 was used in 2 different variants: spraying done once at the stage of 8 leaves, spraying done twice at the stages of 8+12 leaves, in comparison to the control (without use of GA 3 ). Plants which were sprayed with gibberellic acid once or twice formed inflorescences up to 45 days earlier in comparison to control plants. Plants treated with GA 3 were shorter, formed less leaves in rosettes, leaves had blades of smaller length and width and shoots at the base were thicker in comparison to control plants. Plants sprayed with GA 3 formed less floral heads on inflorescence shoots but they characterized with higher mean weight in comparison to plants not treated with the gibberellic acid. Plants sprayed once gave higher yield of heads by 0.4 kg ∙ plant -1 in comparison to control plants and plants sprayed twice.

Foundation of the Pontifical University of John Paul II on 19 June 2009 required a new statute. It was adopted by the university senate on 23 February 2009 and handed over to Cardinal Zenon Grocholewski, the prefect of the Congregation for Catholic Education, on 26 May 2009. After entering the observations of the congregation by the Pontifical University of John Paul II in Cracow, it was approved by the congregation on 2 May 2010. The statute regulates the activity of the entire academic community and its individual faculties. It emphasizes evangelisation tasks of the university, its independence and autonomy to the civil authorities and compatibility of the canonical norms and the regulations of state for the universities.

Acquaintance of dependence among time - limit of sowing anfd with manner of tillage and with beginning of blooming and with recent mass of inflorescence and also of seeds has essential meaning both for economies in apiary, efficiencies of crop of seeds, which can be raw material that time - limit of sowing how and manner of tillage have influence on recent mass of inflorescence how and of seeds investigated od from dragonhead. One ascertained, that plants from fifth time - limit of sowing former unripe. One showed also, that both recent mass of inflorence how and of seeds independently from time - limit of sowing and of manner of tillage depends from circumstances climatically and former different in investigated years.

L’aggressiva campagna antiecclesiastica condotta in Polonia ha attaccato il fondamentale diritto della Chiesa a svolgere la sua missione, per es. il diritto ad insegnare la religione nella scuola. In questa situazione vale la pena di ricordare che il libero compimento della triplice missione della Chiesa è garantito dal Concordato Polacco del 1993. E il suo principio conduttore è la libertà religiosa, grazie al quale il concordato assicura lo svolgimento della missione ecclesiastica: profetica, santificatrice e pastorale.

Nauczanie Vaticanum II i okresu posoborowego nadały właściwe rozumienie wtajemniczeniu chrześcijańskiemu, które zasadza się na stopniowym włączaniu człowieka we wspólnotę z Jezusem Chrystusem i Jego mistycznym Ciałem, którym jest Kościół. Do sakramentów wtajemniczenia chrześcijańskiego należą chrzest, bierzmowanie i Eucharystia, których mogą udzielać szafarze zwyczajni i nadzwyczajni stosownie do przepisów prawa kanonicznego. Przepisy te ulegają rozwojowi i modyfikacji, pozostawiając niezmienne fundamentalne zasady pochodzenia Bożego.

La dottrina della collegialità, approfondita dal Vaticanum II fece nascere una nuova istituzione, chiamata sinodo dei vescovi. Esso è un’espressione della collegialità in senso largo (affectus collegialis). È un organo consultivo del Vescovo di Roma, che serve all’unità del collegio episcopale, ossia tra i suoi membri e il suo capo. Esso è anche un organo che rappresenta l’episcopato mondiale e partecipa all’impegno del pontefice romano riguardante la Chiesa universale. L’effetto finale del sinodo dei vescovi è un documento pontificio, chiamato esortazione apostolica.

Chemical analyses carried out in 2011–2013 aimed at evaluating the contents of flavonoids, free phenolic acids, tannins, anthocyanins, and antioxidant activity (%) by means of DPPH radical neutralization ability in fresh and air-dried fruits of three wild strawberry cultivars. Examinations revealed differences in contents of biologically active substances determined in raw versus dried material depending on the cultivar. Mean concentrations of flavonoids and tannins were highest in raw fruits of “Baron von Solemacher” cv., which amounted to 1.244 mg·g−1and 6.09%, respectively. Fresh fruits of “Regina” cv. were characterized by the highest average content of phenolic acids and anthocyanins: 4.987 mg·g−1and 0.636 mg·100 g−1. The pattern of mean contents of biologically active substances analyzed in air-dried fruits was similar. Significant differences in abilities to neutralize the DPPH radical to diphenylpicrylhydrazine by extracts made of examined wild strawberry fruits were also indicated.

II Concilio Vaticano II ha approfondito la dottrina sulla triplice missione di Cristo, alla quale partecipiano i fedeli laici, insieme ai pastori. I fedeli laici partecipano nel modo proprio alle missione sacerdotale, profetica e regale di Cristo. Il II Sinodo Plenario della Polonia ha preso in considerazione questo tema presentandolo nella prospettiva della dottrina conciliare, tenendo conto della specificitá della vita e dell’attivitá del laicato in Polonia. Pero gli elementi essenziali della dottrina sulla triplice missione sono stati presi del Vaticano II. I laici realizzano la missione sacerdotale santificando se stessi e gli altri; la missione profetica attraverso la testimonianza della vita e della parola; la missione regale servendo il Regno di Cristo sulla terra.

Il II Sinodo Plenario della Polonia intende di rinnovare la vita cristiana in Polonia. Nel programma di questo rinnovamento deve inserirsi pure la scuola di tutti gradi e livelli. Il Sinodo presenta prima tutti problemi - buoni e negativi – di scuola in Polonia. Essa ha bisogno della nuova evangelizzazione, ma anche è lo strumento di questa missione. La scuola serve alla Nazione ed alla Chiesa, poiché educa e forma i bambini e giovani. In questa opera un ruolo importante compie la scuola cattolica. Tutta la comunità di scuola, e specialmente il potere dello Stato e responsabile del funzionamento e dello sviluppo di scuola.

Polish Concordat of 1993 takes into consideration principles of Polish Constitution and Polish laws, as well as the teaching of the Second Vatican Council and the norms of canon law. The central ideas of Concordat are as follows: autonomy, sovereignty of the Catholic Church and Polish Sate and their mutual cooperation. Due to the fact that there is similarity of principles between Concordat and Polish Constitution, the first document in question can create a national consensus and social peace in Poland.
