The story of Mr. Kamil, who is planning to get married in a church, is described. However, his fiancée lives in another parish, so he had to collect baptism and confirmation certificates. Mr. Kamil did not hide his outrage when it turned out that his parish in Mława had introduced a price list for issuing such documents. What’s more, the payment is reminded by a card with information that the faithful can pay with Blitz.
The priest said he was at work and the price list applies
How much did the certificates cost? As Mr. Kamil reports, in his case it was as much as PLN 400. It was also mentioned that the priest talked to him like an official. – He replied that he was at work, the price list was set by the parish priest, these were the rules and we had to negotiate with him – he wrote in his letter to the editor. The man and his fiancée asked whether the priest was here by vocation or whether he had just arrived at work. The priest replied that “he is at work at the moment and the price list applies.”

Pastor: Today, many people avoid cash
The editors of “Gazeta Wyborcza” contacted the parish in Mława. Her parish priest reminded that his church is funded by the voluntary donations of its parishioners. Priests do not receive any subsidies. Interestingly, the priest denied that there was a price list in his parish. – It is customary for parishioners to make offerings for the sacraments. And blik? Today, many people avoid cash and prefer to use electronic payments. So we meet the needs of people, that’s why the terminal is available in the parish office – said the parish priest.
