Some Sisters of our Congregation worked tirelessly in hidden, consecrated service in the episcopal residence and curia in Krakow and later went to serve in the papal household and offices of St. John Paul II. Sisters of our Congregation were present at the Pope's deathbed. 

Here is an article that was published after St. John Paul II's death about our Sisters in the papal service of this Pope. 
Our Sisters and St. John Paul II

CENTENARY OF THE BIRTH OF ST. JOHN PAUL II
(And the 17th Anniversary of Pope John Paul's II Canonization of our Father Founder, St. Joseph Sebastian Pelczar) 
​May 18, 1920-MAY 18, 2020​

​On May 18, 1920,
Karol Jozef Wojtyla was born in Wadowice, Poland
to the Servant of God Karol Wojtyla, Sr.  and
the Servant of God Emilia (Kaczorowska) Wojtyla. 

Karol went on to become the great St. John Paul II,
a father and friend to our Sisters and now
​one of our Patron Saints,
our model of ardor in announcing the good news
of God's merciful love for man. 

The Sister Servants of the Most Sacred  Heart of Jesus rejoice in the Centenary of St. John Paul II's birth 
and in all God has accomplished through him!
