• Opis:
  Fr. Ludwik Antoni Wojtyś was born in 1870 in Pacanów. After ordination to the priesthood in Rome he was chaplain in the Polish and Lithuanian missions in England and Scotland, and also worked among Poles who sought employment in Cape Town in South Africa. From around 1906 to 1923 he ministered to the Polish migrants in the United States. Here, thanks to his diligence and enterprise he made a fortune, purchasing large areas of land in Bridgeport, Connecticut. Upon returning to Poland, he contributed largely to the building of a Catholic secondary school in Kielce. For a short time he served as a pastor of the parishes in Suków and Chmielnik in the Kielce diocese. However, he felt he was treated unfairly in his native diocese, so in 1926 he left for Poznań where he settled and died three years later. There he started a foundation for indigent Polish writers but it actually never came into existence due to Polish bureaucracy and American  law.
