Sanktuarium Matki Bożej Nieustającej Pomocy w Radzyniu Podlaskim, Catholic pilgrimage church in Radzyń Podlaski, Poland.
Sanktuarium Matki Bożej Nieustającej Pomocy is a Catholic pilgrimage church in Radzyń Podlaski, Poland, known for its modern architecture and a large mosaic of Our Lady of Perpetual Help placed above the main entrance. The interior is spacious, with wide entrance doors designed to welcome large gatherings of worshippers.
The sanctuary was built between 1983 and 1985, after local residents received permission from the authorities following years of requests. It was born from the community's determination to have a dedicated place of worship in their town.
The sanctuary is the heart of a prayer community that gathers regularly for the novena to Our Lady of Perpetual Help, a nine-day cycle of prayers repeated throughout the year. Faithful from the surrounding region come here in groups, giving the place a strong sense of shared devotion.
The sanctuary stands on Stefana Kardynała Wyszyńskiego street and opens during regular masses and prayer times throughout the week. Visiting on a weekday novena day offers a chance to see the church in use and experience how the local community gathers here.
The church's three bells, installed in 1996, were each given a name: John Paul II, John the Baptist, and Saint Henry. Their ringing marks religious feasts and has become a familiar sound for people living in the surrounding area.
