At the start of World War II he was moved to a nearby village as a provost of parish of St. Maria Magdalena. After the anti-Nazi uprising in Iwieniec, in June 1943 the local population was arrested by the Germans. Although Puchała had the opportunity, he did not choose to escape and instead remained with his parishioners.
