Who they were

Pluta was born at Kochłowice near Katowice in 1910, ordained in 1934, and led the Gorzów church administration and later the diocese for three decades, dying in a road accident in 1986.

The miracles

No miracle has been approved. The cause is at its first stage.

Why that counted as sanctity

The nihil obstat came on 3 November 2001 and the diocesan process opened on 21 January 2002; on the fortieth anniversary of his death in January 2026 the faithful of Zielona Góra-Gorzów prayed in Gorzów cathedral for the beatification of the Servant of God.

The cause

The cause continues. No postulation address is published here yet. Favours received through this person’s intercession, and offers of help, are best sent to the religious order or congregation they belonged to, or to the diocese where the cause was opened; either will pass them to the postulation.

A miracle approved by the Holy See is needed for the next step. If you know the postulation’s own page, tell us and it will be added here.
