[Activity]
The Church, according to Jesus Christ's command, carries out evangelical activity. Every year in the first days of July the Evangelization Week is organized in Dzięgielów. Besides evangelization activities in parishes, the so-called Church and mission days are also organized.
For catechization purposes children and the youth gather in especially designed for that kind of activity
places; in bigger Evangelical communities schools. During holidays the Days of Good
News are organized for children and holiday camps for the youth.
