The author presents the history of this ministry in a direct relationship with the tasks performed by ostiaries and acolytes in the Church. He lays the main stress on an appropriate formation of sacristans in Poland – human, Christian, intellectual, spiritual, liturgical and biblical. He pinpoints that there is an urgent need to organize diocesan and decanate formative meetings, conventions, retreats, or even theologico-pastoral studies for the candidates. The author is well aware that this will demand, above all, understanding for that issue on the part of priests. A pastoral instruction should be published in Poland, an instruction that deals with this formation, and respective formative materials.plAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Polandhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/pl/kościelnyzakrystianposługaformacjaformacja zakrystianaposługa zakrystianaliturgialiturgikateologiasextonsacristanserviceformationsacristan formationsacristan serviceliturgyliturgicstheologyArticle
