1st Anniversary of The Smolensk Tragedy
On Sunday April 10, 2011 members of the Wawel Folk Ensemble attended a mass at Our Lady Queen of Apostles Church in Hamtramck, Michigan commemorating the one year anniversary of the death of Poland's President, Lech Kaczynski, first lady Maria Kaczynska, and many other members of government, ministers, soldiers and officials. In addition to the church's parishoners, the mass was also attended by members of the ZHP, other Polish dance groups, and the Veterans of the Armia Krajowa. The mass featured reflections on the Smolensk tragedy and also included remarks by the Polish American Congress Michigan Division President, Mariusz Szajnert. Wawel's next appearance will be at the Easter Sunday Resurrection Mass at Sweetest Heart of Mary Church in Detroit, Michigan.
