The Day of Islam

We were learning about other religions and celebrated the Day of Islam.

Though varied religious communities exist in Poland, most Poles adhere to Christianity. Within this, the largest grouping is the Roman Catholic Church: 87.5% of the population identified themselves with that denomination in 2011 (census conducted by the Central Statistical Office (GUS)according to the Institute for Catholic Church Statistics, 36.7% of Polish Catholic believers attended Sunday church services in 2016.
Roman Catholicism continues to be important in the lives of many Poles, and the Catholic Church in Poland enjoys social prestige and political influence, despite repression experienced under Communist rules. Its members regard it as a repository of Polish heritage and culture.Poland lays claim to having the highest proportion of Roman Catholic citizens of any country in Europe.IMG_20180119_075350
