Hello all,

excerpt from article follows

Exorcism -- the church rite of expelling evil spirits from tortured
souls -- is making a comeback in Catholic regions of Europe. Last
July, more than 300 practitioners gathered in the Polish city of
Czestochowa for the fourth International Congress of Exorcists.

Trojanowski is a priest in the northwestern Polish port city of
Szczecin. He said that he sees as many as 20 people a week who are
under the influence of evil spirits, but that he needs more space to
treat them properly. At his exorcism center, he said, people could
check in for a few days and receive ministrations.

Plans for the center were announced in December after an archbishop
gave approval to build it on church land in Poczernin, a village
surrounded by cabbage fields about 20 miles outside Szczecin.

excerpt over.
