"I have come to bring fire on the earth, and how I wish it were already kindled!" (Luke 12:49).
These words of Jesus are a constant call for us. In 2025, we want to respond to them by listening especially to His other words,
addressed to the healed Samaritan: "Rise, go; your faith has made you well" (Luke 17:19).
These are the words that guide this year's edition of the Fire from Heaven Forum!
Just as the ten lepers cried out for mercy, we too want to cry out with power for the gifts of the Holy Spirit, for purification and healing.
We desire to immerse ourselves in God's love, which knows no bounds and touches everyone, even those standing far off.
We want, like the one who returned, to respond to God's Love with praise, thanking Him for His work in our lives.
We want to allow His Holy Spirit not only to heal us but also to work in and through us, sending us forth with renewed faith: "Rise and go!". We pursue this desire together.
The event is under the media patronage of: Portal młodych ICHTIS, Radio Plus, TVP 3 Szczecin, TVP Info, EWTN.
As every year, participants will have the option to purchase lunch with their ticket. The honorary patrons of the Forum are
the Mayor of Szczecin, Piotr Krzystek, and the Archbishop Metropolitan of Szczecin-Kamień, Wiesław Śmigiel.
The event itself could not take place without the commitment and testimony of the joint "going" of Szczecin's communities:
Wspólnota Dom Baranka, Wspólnota Przymierza Miłosierdzia, Wspólnota Miłości Ukrzyżowanej, Wspólnota Przyjaciół Oblubieńca,
Odnowa w Duchu Świętym Archidiecezji Szczecińsko-Kamieńskiej, Ex Corde Dei, and Prawy Brzeg.
What can you expect? A day full of grace, with testimonies from people who, like the Samaritan, have experienced healing and the power of faith.
There will be conferences deepening the understanding of God's Word, worship through music, which is our return to the feet of Jesus with thanksgiving.
There will be time for personal intercessory prayer, the living Word, and the sacraments—sources of purification and strengthening: the Eucharist and Penance and Reconciliation.
Among the guests will be evangelists who will passionately speak about God's love—the same love that found the ten lepers.
And to conclude the event, the band NiemaGOtu will move us with their joyful and fervent sound.
God invites you to this event as well. Remember Jesus' words—He sees everyone. No participant of the Forum is ever a random wanderer,
but a son or daughter invited by the Most High. Perhaps you feel like someone from afar, like the Samaritan?
Come to hear the words addressed to you: "Rise, go; your faith has made you well."

Moved by the call of Jesus, who came to cast fire upon the earth, we desire to ignite it within us during the Forum. We want to call upon the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of Fire, to ignite our lives and fill them with joy. Therefore, the program will include passionately delivered conferences, testimonies, joyful music, and prayer of praise. During the event, we will also pray for the sick and for those who are struggling for any reason. A lunch break is planned in the middle of the day. The day will end with a joyful concert.
My name is Gosia and I am 17 years old. I was at the Forum on Saturday. I wanted to share my testimony. For a very long time (practically since childhood) I had big problems with my spine. It often hurt me to the point where it was hard for me to walk, get up from the floor, etc. Sometimes even very strong medications didn't help me. During the intercessory prayer with Fr. Antonello I felt a wave of heat flowing through my spine from top to bottom. Since Saturday I haven't felt any pain in my spine, not when I get up, not when I walk, etc. I wanted to thank you for this event and for the way it was held.
A few days before the Forum, I developed an inflammation in both shoulders - the pain was terrible, the worst was when I went outside and there was a change in temperature, the pain was unbearable, like someone was tearing my muscle from my neck to my shoulder. I couldn't raise my arms higher than shoulder level and every feeding and carrying of my 5-month-old daughter caused me immense pain. At the Forum, I specifically wanted to stay for the prayer for healing so that someone designated for this could pray for me - unfortunately, I somehow missed it due to taking care of my two daughters - at some point...
We have been married for 22 years and have 4 children. 6 years ago, we experienced the loss of our youngest son, carried then by the prayer of the Church, we experienced an immensity of love and grace thanks to loving people from our circle, from the Domestic Church community, other communities of our Dominican parish, fathers, priests, and many other good people who interceded for us. However, for a long time, our relationship had been drifting apart... I gave up, and Maciej, afraid of confrontation, couldn't initiate a dialogue. Finally, the decision matured in him to cut this abscess... On October 21st, on a Monday after returning from Warsaw, he informed me that he was moving out, that he was ready for a divorce, and that the only chance was marriage counseling... A shock... On Thursday, there was supposed to be another rehearsal at our house for the Forum... I saw no chance to undertake this work, to serve with prayer and song, when our marriage was hanging by a thread... how??? I canceled the rehearsal, constantly praying for God's action... for light on what to do next, for a solution... I scheduled a consultation for us at the Donum Vitae Foundation counseling center, but the earliest available appointment was after the Forum... In the meantime, God...
