Saint John Kanty was the Saint of Poland and Lithuania. He died on Christmas Eve 1473. He was cannonized in 1767. He was known for his generosity and compassion towards the poor. Some of the quotes attributed to him still have great meaning today. 

 

Standing at the back side of this statue, facing the statue on the right of the monument you will see a Polish quote. Use what ever translator you have to translate this saying. It helps to put all the words together in the translator.  Then use the three numbers after the quote as your final digits for the North coordinates. 

 

Harshness damages your soul  (189)

Let perpetual light shine upon you (008)

Let your weapons be patience (367)

 

For the final three digits of the West coordinates find an in the ground marker. It says this monument was renovated in what year? Use the three digits in parentheses as the last digits of West coordinates.

Year 2003.  (058)

Year 2004.  (879)

Year 2005.  (254)
