There are nine Society priests active in Poland. For the Ascension the Society is establishing its fourth priorate in the country in the Pomeranian village of Baersee (Bajerze) -- not fare from the city of Kulm. From these bases the Society can serve more chapels. A new chapel opened recently in October in the city of Posen. A hundred Catholics came to the opening of this chapel. In many locales these chapels are bursting at the seems and the Society is collecting donations for the construction of proper churches.

What's with using the German names for Polish cities? Kulm is Chelmno, Posen is Poznan.

I agree with dfwgator -- it's Poznan,not Posen

Also, churches here are always full -- I went to a nearby parish yesterday for mass and they have seating for 1000+ and it's always full for all the 10 masses (and it's not a cathedral)
