Parish of San Massimiliano Maria Kolbe in Giugliano in the Campania region of Naples.
It takes its name in honor of Maximilian Maria Kolbe who was born in Zdunska-Wola (Lodz) in central Poland, on January 8, 1894, and was baptized on the same day with the name of Raimondo. The family then moved to Pabianice where Raimondo attended primary school, felt a mysterious invitation from the Blessed Virgin Mary to love Jesus generously and felt the first signs of a religious and priestly vocation.
The fame of the holy life and heroic death of Fr. Maximilian Maria Kolbe spread throughout the world, admired and exalted everywhere. After the processes and canonical examinations on the heroic virtues of the Servant of God Maximilian Maria and on the miracles attributed to his intercession by him were carried out by the authorities of the Church, the Holy Father Paul VI proclaimed him Blessed on 17 October 1971.
On 10 October 1982, the Holy Father John Paul II proclaimed him a saint and martyr.
