Born on 29 January 1957 in Kowala, Kielce County, Wojda entered the Pallottines in 1976 and was ordained a priest on 8 May 1983. He received a Licentiate from the Pontifical Gregorian University in 1986, and a PhD in 1989. From 1991, he served in a variety of roles in Congregation for the Evangelization of Peoples. He was appointed the Congregation's under-secretary on 24 July 2012.[1]
On 12 April 2017, Pope Francis named him Archbishop of Białystok.[2] and he was installed there on 10 June 2017.[3]
Within the Episcopal Conference of Poland, he is a member of the Mission Committee and the Concordat Commission.[4]
On 7 July 2019, ahead of the LGBT march scheduled to take place on 20 July, Wojda issued a non possumus proclamation to be read in all churches in Białystok and the entire Podlaskie Voivodeship. He called pride marches "blasphemy against God". He described the march as organized "by a foreign initiative in Podlaskie land and community, an area which is deeply rooted in Christianity and concerned about the good of its own society, especially children".[5] [6] [7] [8] [9] Following the march, Wojda condemned the violence that occurred at the march as incompatible with Christianity and urged believers to pray for "the family and its internal purity".[10]
On 2 March 2021, he was appointed archbishop of Gdańsk.[11] He was formally installed as Archbishop on 28 March 2021.
