Our Beloved Kozal Family

I cannot tell you how wonderful the Kozal family in Poland is!  We have never experienced so much love, so much hospitality, so much selflessness, so much inclusion.  Maria Gabryelczyk (Ciocia Maria) said it best when she said that this family is very large...with many limbs which split into many branches which split into many twigs...and every now and again Blessed Bishop Michal Kozal gives them a shake and calls us back together.  What an amazing analogy to explain this sense of Kozal interconnectedness!  I sometimes think about the many Church signs that say "All are welcome!".  Realistically speaking, this is clearly not true for most churches especially in the United States; yet when the Kozal family gathers to celebrate family in Poland, "all are welcome" is absolute truth.  We have been treated with such loving care.  Kozal family members have hosted gatherings in every city we've visited in the Wielkopolska province.  We have been blessed by great conversation, much laughter, and amazing food.  And yes, we will come back ten pounds heavier.  The following are some very memorable photos of us and our amazing family...
