Philippine Orthopedic Center surgeon Dr. Jonathon Flordelis attends to one of the thousands of people who were injured during Typhoon Haiyan.
This woman suffered paralysis due to a cervical spine injury when her neck was struck by an object during the height of the typhoon.
DFID is supporting the World Health Organisation (WHO) in the Philippines in its work with national and local groups to improve the lives of the disabled in the Hayian-affected areas. In the immediate aftermath this work has involved ensuring the newly disabled can get access to the rehabilitation services and devices such as wheelchairs that they need.

This artistic provocation seeks to estimate the orders of magnitude of critical ecosystem services fundamental to all planetary life processes. It is common to use economic metaphors, which entail specific understandings of value, to describe our relationships with society, the world, and the biosphere. Today’s prevailing economic conventions are unable to recognize the intrinsic value of the ecosystems on which all life depends. In cultures overdetermined by concepts from economics, we are left without adequate discursive instruments to socially or politically address the importance of ecosystem contribution to life on Earth. This experiment consists of 1 square meter of wheat, cultivated in a closed environment. Critical inputs such as water, light, heat, and nutrients are measured, monitored, and displayed for the public. This procedure makes palpable the immense scale of ecosystem contributions and provides a speculative reference for a reckoning of the undervalued and over exploited “work of the biosphere.”
Philipp Gartlehner of the Ars Electronica Center planted barley with the heilp of the Life Support system and after three months, the harvest was ready to be brought in. The cost for growing one square meter of barley indoors accounted for the massive amount of 430 Euro. Another reason why we really have to take care for our ecosystem.

This unique healing device has two parts: a two inch thick dome of pure crystalline Himalayan Pink Salt and a hand-crafted rosewood base that both supports the salt dome and houses two small light bulbs.

Himalayan salt works in a number of ways:
When the Himalayan Salt Detoxer is warmed, the salt helps release negative ions that are anti-microbial, air purifying, skin purifying and that promote a sense of well being. Purifying the air by binding positive ions helps dust and allergens to settle.
The warmth of the stone causes the feet to sweat, allowing the salt to purify and cleanse. Toxins are pulled out and minerals pulled in, thus decreasing unhealthy acidity. This also helps ease tiredness, aching, and symptoms of stress caused by over-exertion.
As well, the Himalayan Salt Detoxer softens and gently exfoliates the skin as it binds with the salt through the moisture on the hands and feet.
It is the source of many vital nutrients. Himalayan salt can contain as many as 84 natural minerals vital to health that can be absorbed through the skin.
The Himalayan Salt Detoxer helps to re-attune the body to the Schumann resonance, sometimes called the heart beat of Mother Earth which helps ease nervousness, insomnia and lack of concentration while helping to clear cancer causing free radicals from the body.
How to Use the Himalayan Crystal Salt Detoxer
The Himalayan Salt Detoxer is used for foot detoxification, localized skin care treatments, manicures and pedicures, among many uses. For instance, some people use it:
For manicures or pedicures. Rest one hand or foot on the Himalayan Salt Detoxer while attending to the other hand or foot.
To re-invigorate tired feet and legs after work or exercise.
To lessen the pain of carpal tunnel or arthritic conditions.
How Long the Himalayan Salt Detoxer Should Be Used for Each Session?
Initially we recommend 10 to 20 minute sessions. When this is comfortable, an individual may progress to 30 minutes to a maximum of 60 minutes. It can be used for one long session or for a few shorter sessions during the day. Please discontinue use if there is any discomfort.
How Do I Turn It On and Adjust the Temperature?
Heat is controlled by using the UL-approved dimmer switch. Before using the Himalayan Salt Detoxer turn the dial on the dimmer switch to the maximum level for 10-20 minutes. Then, once the salt is a comfortable temperature, turn the switch back to the mid-point. Periodic temperature adjustment of the unit, by rotating the dimmer control switch up or down, may be needed. This will maintain the preferred level of warmth. Salt is a temperature sink (which means it holds heat very well), but temperature changes are not immediate so please take care, especially if you feel the dome is too hot. Even when removed from the base it will feel warm for a number of minutes.
Are There Any Precautions Before I Begin to Use the Himalayan Salt Detoxer?
We firmly believe in the benefits of the Himalayan Salt Detoxer, but we make no medical claims to cure, treat or prevent any kind of disease. Before using the Himalayan Salt Detoxer please seek appropriate medical advice if you have symptoms that are of concern. Such concerns may include:
Pregnancy
Already being under medical supervision
Currently taking medication for a pre-existing condition
Are diabetic or have diminished sensation in your feet
IMPORTANT NOTE: Please do not use a very wet cloth as this will dissolve the salt gradually or cause it to crack.
What Should I Do If the Salt Surface Starts to Look “Crusty”?
This is usually due to the surface getting damp either from the moisture content in the air, from a hand or foot that has touched the surface or from water droplets that have gone undetected. To prevent “crusting”, the Himalayan Salt Detoxer should be wrapped in a plastic bag then sealed OR kept lit on low when not in use. To repair moisture damage, wipe off the crumbly salt and put the Detoxer on high for 30 minutes to make sure it is thoroughly dry.
For your safety:
Use only for hands or feet.
Never stand, sit on or apply full body weight to the Himalayan Salt Detoxer equipment.
Do not use if the dome is cracked or split.
Discontinue use and seek medical attention if your skin swells or becomes inflamed.
Keep away from water and places where the salt surface may come into contact with water.
Never use when the cord or plug is damaged.
If you are pregnant, under medical supervision, or taking medication, consult your physician before using the Himalayan Salt Detoxer . Not recommended for use by diabetics.

Along with profound and expanding benefits, global technological change also poses serious and growing risks for the world’s economies and societies. Evolving Internet communication products and services have powered growth and productivity, exponentially encouraging democratization, innovation, and collaboration.
A society that actively addresses COP with a 360 degree approach has a competitive advantage over a society that denies or chooses not to address all aspects of cyber-abuse, because societies that provide for victim support as well as prevention and education, are more resilient to socio-economic disruptions and more likely to experience overall social and economic success.

Acid Survivors Charity (ASC), Socio Health And Rehabilitation Programme (SHARP), Sirajgonj.
Neela (left) was married in 2006 aged 14. There was no dowry payment involved. She went to live with her in laws but while she was there overheard her husband saying to his parents that marrying her was a bad decision as he received no dowry payment. She overheard the decision that her husband would traffic her to Saudi Arabia where he worked. When confronting her husband he threw acid over her face and body. She had six months of treatment, still managed to pass her exams and was then brought to ASN to receive support. She now lives with her family in Siraganj. Her husband was arrested and given the death penalty in early 2009. However, he was imprisoned for just one year and now walks free.
‘I am Neela.
I think being a girl, the best thing is nowadays girls’ position in society has improved a lot and we can do many things. At the same time, the worst thing is because it is a male dominated society, even though women have advanced a lot, they are still oppressed and neglected. Side by side, the message I want to convey, as a girl, is that I want for girls to change their minds and go ahead. In my life, I want to continue my studies and graduate. After graduation I want to have a good job.
My name is Neela. I am ActionAid’.
The Acid Survivors Network was formed in 2006 in Sirajganj, Bangladesh to help the victims of Acid Violence. Acid attacks are a form of violent assault, often linked to ‘honour’ in parts of Asia. Acid is readily available and used in the garments trade in areas of Bangladesh where acid violence is inherently more rife. Poor women are usually the victims of these domestic attacks perpetrated as revenge for refusal of marriage, sexual advances, dowry payment or land disputes. The ASN not only helps with the physical challenges such as legal aid and medical assistance, but also assists with the psychological challenges that arise from fear of prejudice and stigma in the community. Victims are provided with a safe place to stay, develop life skills, attend group counselling sessions and actively campaign to enforce acid laws and build awareness. ActionAid is assisting the ASN through its partner organisation SHARP (‘Socio Health and Rehabilitation Programmes).

GMP officers recently joined representatives from Victim Support to launch the Birch Room at Rochdale police station yesterday as it became the second space to be dedicated to victim experience at the station.
The Willow Room has been a dedicated safe place in Rochdale police station since it opened in 2009 and will now be used solely by GMP whilst the Birch Room will be a specialist room dedicated to Victim Support.
Claire Powell, contract manager for Victim Support in Manchester said: "It's important that people affected by crime are given the support they need and the respect they deserve."
"We're delighted to have funded the furnishing of the Birch room, which we hope will aid the police and Victim Support staff to better support victims at Rochdale police station."
Victim Support has fitted the Birch Room with specialist equipment and chairs to create a ‘soft’ environment for people who need extra support such as victims of serious crime and children. It is designed to encourage vulnerable victims to feel at ease when receiving support at the police station, helping them on their journey to recovery.
Chief Superintendent Chris Sykes from GMP said: “Victims are at the core of everything that we do and we are constantly looking at ways to improve their experience when they come to us.
“The new Birch Room, supplied with furniture from Victim Support, will allow us to give our victims the time and space they need, in a comfortable and safe environment.”
Greater Manchester Police and Crime Commissioner Tony Lloyd said: “Rooms like these will help to create a supportive, comforting environment during an incredibly difficult time. Victims must be placed firmly at the heart of our criminal justice system, and that should start from the moment they report the crime or attend a police station.”
To find out more about Greater Manchester Police please visit our website www.gmp.police.uk
You should call 101, national non-emergency number, to report crime and other concerns that do not require an emergency response.
Always call 999 in an emergency, such as when a crime is in progress, violence is being used or threatened or where there is danger to life.
You can also call anonymously with information about crime to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111. Crimestoppers is an independent charity who will not want your name, just your information. Your call will not be traced or recorded and you do not have to go to court or give a statement.

Declaration of 4,000 MPs, including majorities of 30 parliaments
Moreover, a deceleration by over 4,000 MPs from 40 countries across the globe in support of the Iranian Resistance and especially Ashraf residents was unveiled at the gathering. The MPs, including the majority of the European Parliament, the majority of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe and majorities of 28 national parliaments, called for the urgent protection of Ashraf by the UN, U.S. and EU, the immediate lifting of the siege on Ashraf – especially ensuring free access to medical services – and an impartial, comprehensive and independent investigation into the crimes committed on April 8th in Ashraf
In a large and exhilarating gathering held in the Villepinte Auditorium near Paris on Saturday afternoon, 18 June 2011, Iranians called for the immediate protection of Ashraf by the UN with assistance provided by the U.S. and EU. They also condemned any kind of displacement of Ashraf residents inside Iraq, and declared their support for Europe’s peaceful long-term solution for Ashraf. The participants described maintaining the terrorist tag against the People's Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK) by the US State Department as an illegal measure and tantamount to participating in the repression of the Iranian people and Resistance. The attendees called on the U.S. government to comply with last July's verdict of the U.S. Court of Appeals in D.C. and immediately revoke the PMOI's terrorist designation.
Hundreds of prominent politicians and MPs representing a broad range of political views from countries in five continents of the globe also took part in the largest gathering of its kind by Iranian exiles. In addition to expressing their support for the Iranian Resistance and defending Ashraf’s rights, the high-profile dignitaries also called for the recognition of the National Council of Resistance by the international community
Rudolph Giuliani, former New York City Mayor and Presidential Candidate (2008); US Congressman Bob Filner; Rita Sussmouth, former Speaker of the German Parliament (1988-1998); Judge Michael Mukasey, former US Attorney General (2007-2009); Ambassador John Bruton, former Prime Minister of Ireland (1994-1997) and EU ambassador to the US (2004-2005); Jean-Pierre Brard, Member of French National Assembly; Andrew Card, White House Chief of Staff of President George Bush (2001-2006); Tom Ridge, first US Secretary of Homeland Security (2003-2005); Alejo Vidal Quadras, European Parliament Vice President; Geir Haarde, former Prime Minister of Iceland (2006-2009); Lord Corbett of Castle Vale, Head of the Labour Peers group in the House of Lords; Nariman al-Rousan, Member of Jordanian Parliament; Aude de Thuin, author and founder of the Women Forum; Sid Ahmed Ghozali, former Prime Minister of Algeria; Robert Torricelli, former U.S. Senator; Carlo Ciccioli, Member of the Italian Parliament; Jean-Charles Rielle, Member of the Swiss Federal Parliament; and Henry Leclerc, Honorary President of the Human Rights League of France.
A number of French mayors, including Jean-Pierre Béquet, Mayor of Auvers-sur-Oise; Nelly Rolland, Mayor of Villepinte; and Maurice Boscavert, Mayor of Taverny, delivered speeches and declared the support of 5,000 French mayors for the Iranian Resistance.
The ceremony was held on the eve of June 20th, the Day of Martyrs and Political Prisoners in Iran. The master of ceremony for the first part of the event was Congressman Patrick Kennedy, Member of US House of Representatives until 2011. David Amess, Member of British Parliament from the Conservative Party, took over the event for the second part.
While being accompanied by Mrs. Rezaii (the mother of 7 martyrs), Mahin Saremi and a number of French MPs, Mrs. Maryam Rajavi honored the memory of 120,000 martyrs of the Iranian people, who have fallen during the three decade struggle against the clerical dictatorship, including the martyrs of the past two years and those who lost their lives as a result of the recent criminal attack against Ashraf.
Mrs. Mahin Saremi, the wife of PMOI supporter Ali Saremi, also took part in the gathering. Ali Saremi was Iran’s most prominent political prisoner and was hanged last year by the Iranian regime after enduring 24 years of imprisonment and torture. Mrs. Saremi, who herself was arrested and imprisoned several times since the 1980s, was recently condemned to 10 years of imprisonment but managed to flee from the Iranian regime and reach Paris. Akbar, the son of Ali and Mahin Saremi, is among the residents of Ashraf.

The display reads:
The M981, known as the FIST-V was the first U.S. Army specialized vehicle for the Fire Support Team or Forward Observer in the U.S. Army. Introduced in 1978, the FIST-V used a M113 Armored Personnel Carrier chassis and was identical in appearance to the M901 Improved TOW Vehicle (ITV). This identical appearance helped make the fire support team less of a target on the battlefield. The ITV used the large "hammerhead" on top of the vehicle to launch TOW anti-tank missiles. The "hammerhead" on the FIST-V housed a ground / vehicle laser locator designator (G/VLLD) and a AN/TAS-4 night sight. This allowed the fire support team to locate and designate targets with the laser to be hit by precision guided artillery projectiles or aerial bombs. Inside, the M981 had seven radios and two digital message devices to communicate with the infantry or armor units it supported or the artillery fire direction center. During Operation Desert Storm in 1991, units found that the M981 and other M113 series vehicles were unable to keep up with the Abrams tanks and Bradley Infantry Fighting Vehicles. The FIST-V was replaced by the Bradley FIST (BFIST) beginning in 2000.

78 FotografandoVIDA, na campanha "AJUDE a Abraçar com o seu OLHAR)
TEXTO DO ERNANIB:
Há o tempo de plantar e o tempo de colher. Todos nós temos presa para viver, nunca de morrer. Temos tempo para a internet, para um amigo, para brincar, para trabalhar, mas nunca temos tempo para parar e ajudar. Temos tempo para ver TV, ler jornais, um bom livro, mas nunca tempo para ler um pedido de ajuda.
Mas há quem não tem mais tempo. Quem não teve tempo de plantar. Quem mal tem tempo para brincar. Quem mal vai ter tempo de dizer: “Eu te amo mamãe, papai!!!”. Porque em algum lugar alguém não teve tempo para parar e ler essa mensagem, para procurar saber do que se tratava, sobre quem se estava falando, de procurar saber como poderia ajudar; já que quem deveria ajudar não acha tempo para isso, porque não acha importante, porque é um investimento que não tem retorno no curto espaço de tempo ou porque acha que seu tempo é valioso demais para gastar com quem não tem tanto tempo de vida assim.
Pare um momento. Procure se informar, ler, ajudar. Quem já conta os segundos para a despedida final vai agradecer de coração por esses poucos instantes de tempo, que você dedicou a elas.
Não deixe que o relógio das vidas delas pare só porque você não queria perder tempo. Ajude!!! Divulge!!! Dê corda nesses pequenos relógios de vida.
_____________________________________________________
There is a time for planting and a time for harvesting. We are all in a hurry to live, not to die.We have time for internet, for friends, for playing, for working and we never have time to stop and help others. We have time for watching TV, reading the papers or a good book but we never have time for reading a message asking for help.
But there are the ones who don’t have any more time to lose. The ones who didn’t have time to plant. That barely have time to play. That won’t have time to say “I love you, mom, dad”. Because someone, somewhere didn’t have time to read this message, to try to know what it means, to try to know how to help. Because many times who could help don’t have the time, because it’s not an investment with short term interest or because thinks its time is too valuable to spend with somenone who doesn’t have that much time.
Stop for a moment.Try to read and get informed. The children that are about to say their goodbyes to life will be thankful for these few moments you took to help them.. Don’t let their life clocks stop just because you didn’t want to waste your time. Help them! Spread the word! Wind up these little life clocks
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hay momentos para sembrar, y otros para recoger la cosecha. Todos tenemos tiempo para vivir, nunca para morir. Tenemos tiempo para Internet, para un amigo, para jugar, para trabajar, pero nunca tenemos tiempo para detenernos y ayudar. Tenemos tiempo para ver Tele, leer periódicos, un buen libro, pero nunca tiempo para leer un pedido de ayuda.
Pero hay quienes ya no tienen más tiempo. Quien no tuvo tiempo para sembrar. Que apenas tiene tiempo para jugar, y que quizás tampoco no va a tener tiempo para decir "Yo te amo mamá! papá!
Porque en algún lugar alguien no tuvo tiempo para detenerse a leer este mensaje, para tratar de entender de qué se trataba, de quién se estaba hablando, de entender cómo se podía ayudar; ya que quien debería ajudar no consigue tiempo para esto, porque no lo considera importante, porque es una inversión que no tiene retorno en un corto espacio de tiempo o porque cree que su tiempo es mucho más valioso como para gastarlo con quien no tiene tanto tiempo de vida.
Detente un momento. Procura Informarte, leer, ayudar.
Quienes cuentan los segundos para la despedida final van agradecer de corazón por ese gesto, por haber leido éstas líneas.
No dejes que el reloj de la vida de esas personas pare porque no querías perder tiempo.
Ayuda! Divulga! Dale cuerda a esas pequeñas manecillas del reloj de la vida!

In 1455, the Poznań burgher Maciej Czarny (Matthew Black), with the support of Bishop Andrzej Bniński, handed over the land to the Bernardines. The monks arrived in the city on Christmas Day 1456 and soon built a wooden church. Already in 1470, the construction of a brick church began. The church in the late Gothic style was consecrated in 1473. The temple received the call of the Holy Cross, the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary and Saint Andrew, Franciszek and Bernardine of Siena, and its founder was Bishop Andrzej Bniński. In 1487, the Custody was established here, which involved the extension of the guardian's authority, which henceforth wore the title of custodian for the surrounding monasteries of the congregation.
In 1609 a Renaissance chapel of Our Lady of Loreta was added to the church.
During the Swedish Deluge, in 1657, the church was set on fire by Brandenburg. The most valuable items from the sacristy and many manuscripts and prints from the rich monastery library were plundered. To this day, they are found in the royal libraries in Stockholm and Uppsala.
Reconstruction began already in 1658 under the leadership of Krzysztof Bonadura the Elder, and then Jerzy Catenazzi. The construction was completed in 1668, and then the bishop suffragan, Maciej Kurski, who was also a St. Bernard, again consecrated the church, giving him the call of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
The temple was severely damaged during a hurricane in 1725. Renovation took place in 1730-1736. At that time, the present elevation and the characteristic two towers with two-sided helmets designed by Jan Adam Stier from Leszno and a group of figures of Franciscan saints in the façade of Franciszek Domsburger from Wschowa were created. In 1742, the chapel of Our Lady of Loreta was added from the south, replacing the Loreto house erected there in 1663, and the renovation was completed by the addition of new organs in 1750.
The end of the existence of the Bernardine monastery was its dissolution made by the Prussian authorities in 1835, in 1839 the church and monastery were taken over by the parish of Saint. Marcin (the last monk, father Julian Fujarski, he died in 1841), and then in 1843 the Middle School of Saint. Mary Magdalene. From that time on, the team acted as a school church.
During World War II, the Germans changed the temple into opera painting workshops. Then all the equipment was destroyed. The buildings themselves were destroyed in 1945, during the liberation of Poznań, when the Germans placed an anti-tank gun in it, making it a point of resistance.
In 1947 the ruins of the band were taken over by the Minorites from the Bernardine Province of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, beginning in 1948 with long-lasting reconstruction. It is true that in 1951 the church was so renovated that it was consecrated, giving today's call, however, the reconstruction was completed only in 1972, and the last work dragged on until 1983, when the reconstruction of helmets and the roof was completed. Later, works on the reconstruction of the interior and the monastery premises were also underway. In 1988, the new wing of the monastery was completed, which took the place of the destroyed during the war, and the chapel from St. Anne. In 1974 a parish was established near the church, where the Church of the Transfiguration in Poznań is also located.
In the meantime, in 1965, the Provincial Chapter decided to put in the monastery a central library of old prints and manuscripts. It was for her that the southern wing of the monastery was added. Since 1991, the monastery and the temple are the seat of the Franciscan province - Saint. Francis of Assisi.
It is a massive, three-nave hall structure on a rectangular plan, with an elongated, lower presbytery which closes a straight wall. From the south adjoins the preserved chapel of Our Lady of Loreta from the eighteenth century in which there is a Renaissance Loretan house originally located in the nave, and from the north of the monastery buildings. From the outside, attention is drawn to the rich, baroque facade with two towers, which are crowned with magnificent helmets, 29 m tall, designed by Jan Adam Stiera.
Between the pilasters and cornices there are niches with figures of Franciscan saints from around 1730, sculpted by Franciszek Domsburger. They present:
in the lower part: Saint. Jan Kapistrana (in the middle) and Saint. Bernardine from Siena, Saint. Franciszek Solano, Saint. James of Marches and Saint. Peter of Alcantara.
in the middle part: Saint. Bonaventure and Saint. Ludwika from Toulouse
in the upper floor of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary and on her sides St. Francis of Assisi and Saint. Antoni Padewski.
Inside, enter the porch, covered with a vaulted ceiling, from where you enter the nave on the rather high stairs up to the nave, and down to the chapel of the Holy Cross and the crypt. The unusual, high position of the floor results from the desire to avoid flooding during Warta's frequent floods. In the porch there is a window, which is a remnant of the original Baroque portal from the 17th century, transformed into a window after 1823. There is a stained glass window from the early twentieth century depicting Saint. Piotr from Alkantra was moved here in 1948 from the church in Panewniki (today Katowice). In the porch, there is also a plaque commemorating Fr. Leona Skórnicki (1891-1965), rector of the church and prefect of the gymnasium of Maria Magdalena.
The interior of the church is covered with a barrel vault with lunettes, and between arcaded pillars there are arcaded passages. The main altar was built after 1950. In its center, there is a copy of Rubens' God's Wrath authored by Józef Pade from 1950. On its sides, sculptures from 1778-1779 by Augustine Schöps, depicting Saint. John the Evangelist and Saint. Józef with Baby Jesus. In the finial of the altar, God the Father.
In front of the altar, also by Schöps, sculptures depicting Saint. Bonaventure, Saint. Bernardine from Siena, Saint. Augustine and Saint. Ambrose.
In the presbytery there are also stalls from 1950-1960, reconstructed according to archival photographs. A passion group from the turn of the 17th and 18th centuries on the rainbow beam. At the first, counting from the presbytery, the pillars on the left are the pulpit crowned with the figure of Christ and on the left a sarcophagus of Mary and above it the scene of the Assumption. Both neo-Baroque equipment elements were created in 1954. Next to the pulpit there is a stylized rococo font.
Side altars were made in 1988-1989 according to the design of Henryk Marcinkowski. In the left in the central part there is a painting of Saint. Józef with Child, and in the finial image of Saint. Anna, Lose with little Maria. On the sides of the sculpture of Saint. Franciszka and Saint. Paschal. In the right altar, the middle is taken by Saint. Antoni Padewski, another painting in the finial presents Saint. John Duns. In the side parts, the sculptures show St. John of Dukla and Bl. Władysława from Gielniowa. All paintings in the side altars were painted by Danuta Waberska, and sculptures were made by Andrzej Biernacki. On the pillars there are 12 figures of apostles standing on the consoles from the side of the nave. Only Saint survived the war. Piotr and Saint. Paweł (the remaining 10 figures of the apostles are reconstructions).
The chapel of the Divine Mother of Loreto closes the early-baroque trellis from 1650. Inside, a contemporary figure of Our Lady of Loretto made by Franciszek Masorz from Rybnik.
The nave from the west closes the empora. with the pillars supporting it, Saint. John Kapistrana and Saint. Francis of Assisi. In the Empire, the organ prospectus from the 19th century was maintained in the neo-baroque style, which came here from one of the post-evangelic churches.
In the chapel of St. The cross, under the floor, is a late-baroque crucifix from the mid-18th century, which was moved here from the Reformed monastery in Wieleń.
In front of the monastery, a small statue of St. Francis of Assisi and the cracked bell of Saint. Franciszka and Saint. Jan Kapistran was cast in 1730 by Poznań Ludwisarzy, hung on one of the towers in 1733 and dropped in 1945.
