Summary/Abstract: The Evangelical Reformed Church service is related in form to that of the ancient church. They are also more simplified than the church services of the Lutheran Church. The main focus of the service is Scripture reading, the sermon, followed by the sacrament of the Eucharist. Communion, however, is not offered every Sunday. In the Parish located in Leszno street, there were also ceremonies held, special prayers said and important anniversaries celebrated. This article presents the shape of the Sunday service in the Evangelical Reformed Parish in Warsaw in the second part of 19th century.
