Foundation’s Board and Council

Barbara Marszałek

council member

A search, over many years, for harmony in life allowed her to discover the Benedictine identity which she had been blindly seeking and feeling. This came about at a providential time, when Fr. Włodzimierz Zatorski began coming, with books published by the Tyniec Benedictines, to the aMBasador Bookshop which she had established and was running in Olsztyn. Since 1999 she has been organizing public meetings with the Tyniec monk, as well as Benedictine Focus Days. Previously she worked as a decorator in the “Dom Książki” Bookshop and in the Rural Planning Office. Since 2009 she has been Tyniec’s lay Oblate. She is the mother of two, and grandmother of six.
