Józef Cebula was a Polish Catholic priest belonging to the Missionary Oblates of Mary Immaculate who lived from 1902 to 1941. Born in Upper Silesia, he pursued religious studies in Belgium and Poland before being ordained in 1927. He served the order in various leadership capacities, including as a novice master, until the German occupation of Poland changed his life. He was eventually arrested for providing sacraments to the sick and died in the Mauthausen concentration camp after defying his captors.
