As of mid-September 2026, Catholic parishes across Poland continue to manage the transition into the new school and catechetical year while coordinating liturgical schedules. Following the September 1 inauguration of the 2026/2027 school year, parishes have focused on upcoming feasts, such as the Feast of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary and the Feast of the Most Holy Name of Mary.

Parishes are actively releasing specific Holy Mass intentions and schedules for the month. In Zabrze-Biskupice, the WNMP Parish has listed intentions for birthdays, anniversaries of death, and individual blessings. Similarly, the Parish of St. Stanislaus Bishop Martyr in Czernice Borowe has announced a schedule of funeral commemorations and anniversary masses, including a special service for parishioners and guests to coincide with their Parish Harvest Festival (Dożynki Parafialne).

Regional harvest festivals (dożynki) remain a central seasonal theme, with previous large-scale celebrations noted in Kraków, Ludźmierz, Biała Rawska, Pilaszkowo, and Sieraków. Religious anniversaries also continue to be observed, such as the 500th anniversary of the St. Wojciech Parish in Krzepczów and the consecration anniversary of the Gorzów Wlkp. Cathedral.

Community and educational programming remains a priority. In Zabrze-Biskupice, the Parish of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary is hosting the sixth edition of the ‘Szwarny Senior’ project for elderly residents and organizing an organ concert by Michał Duźniak as part of the 31st International Organ Festival. In Liski, parishes have organized excursions including a walking pilgrimage to Kalwaria Zebrzydowska on September 12 and a five-day flight pilgrimage to Rome scheduled for October 11–15, which includes visits to the Vatican Museums and an audience with the Pope.
