During August, David Hathaway visited Poland in preparation for large-scale evangelism in 2022. He spoke in a Protestant Church opened for the converts of his previous evangelism in 2012. Because the leading Catholic Bishop who invited David in 2014 is now Head of the Catholic Church in Poland and David was again his guest this time, he was the first ever Protestant to be invited to evangelise in the centre of Krakow during a March for Jesus in the town! David also recorded several interviews for Polish National TV, as well as a very long, exciting interview for the Polish Catholic YouTube Channel.
