Geneza i erygowanie parafii w Sadlinkach w 1973 roku

Abstract

In 1945, the area of the present parish in Sadlinki was mostly inhabited by Protestants. After the end of World War II, their place was taken by Poles, mostly Catholics. There was a post-Evangelical temple here, built in the interwar period. It was taken over by Catholics as early as 1945. The church became a branch of the parish in Nebrowo Wielkie. In 1958 the ruler of the Warmia Diocese appointed a priest. Formally, he was the vicar of the parish in Nebrowo Wielkie. The Warmia Docese was not allowed to rebuild the pastorʼs house, which was to become a presbytery. The priest lived in a private building, which was part of a farm. The priest could buy them because he had the required agricultural education. Despite the efforts of the rulers of the Warmia Diocese and the faithful, the state authorities did not agree to the erection of a parish in Sadlinki until 1973. After its establishment, the current chaplain did not obtain the approval of these authorities to take the office of the parish priest. The obstacles only ceased in 1982, with the change of the chaplain.
