St. Arnold Janssen, the founder of the Divine Word Missionaries, was looking for young people who would go to the ends of the earth and preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ. He was particularly keen on candidates from Catholic backgrounds. He included the Warmia region among them. In 1907, he began efforts to establish a Divine Word Missionary institution in that area. In 1914, the Curia in Frombork made an offer to give up the summer bishop's palace in Smolajny to the Society of the Divine Word. However, the transaction did not take place. In 1916, Brother Zygmunt, a distributor of Divine Word Missionary magazines, found several offers for a future missionary house in Warmia. The best one was the property of the childless Kruger couple in the town of Mehlsack, currently Pieniężno. Missionary Seminary of Divine Word Missionaries (SVD) in Pieniężno under the name of St. Wojciech, a seminary at the Missionary House of the Divine Word Missionaries of St. Wojciech.
