blessed Father Jan Beyzym, SJ (1850–1912) who taught in Tarnopol and Chyrów for 17 years before leaving, at 48 in 1898, for Madagascar to begin his apostolate to people suffering with Leprosy. Adam Kozłowiecki, SJ was in charge of discipline 1933–34. After surviving Dachau concentration camp, he went on to spend decades as a missionary in Zambia.
