Summary/Abstract: The purpose of the article is to present and discuss the most important needs of the Church arising from the worship of God, which the faithful are obliged to meet, in accordance with can. 222 § 1 Code of Canon Law. When discussing the subject of addressing the needs of the Church, it is necessary to refer to Polish secular legislation, because the faithful also belongs to the state community.

Keywords: Church needs, the worship of God, ministry in the church, Attend Holy Mass and church holidays.
