Till 1939 there were eight parishes in it: Górno, Kamień, Medynia Głogowska, Nienadówka, Sokołów Małopolski, Stobierna and Wólka Niedźwiedzka. On this area, there were eight parochial churches and one filial, seven made of brick and two wooden. Two churches, in Górno and Sokołów Małopolski were built on the edge of interwar period.
