However, social changes and contemporary problems connected with the functioning of family have lead to a modification of the father model, and even the thesis about its crisis has appeared. This is why pastoral care for fathers of the family is one of the priorities of the family pastorate. Creating structures and methods of such a pastorate is a pastoral postulate. It is worth retuming to the practice of special teachings for fathers as well as establishing workshops, retreats, pilgrimages and other forms of work with fathers. Experiences of Catholic families associations that give broadly understood support to fathers are especially valuable, as well as the grass-roots Inicjatywa Tato.Net that actively promotes responsible fatherhood.plCC-BY-ND - Uznanie autorstwa - Bez utworów zależnychfatherhoodreligious functions of the father in the familyfather as the priest of the familystate pastoral careChurch's care for fatherspastoral care for fatherspastoral care for familiespastoral careministryfamilypriestsChurchojcostwofunkcje religijne ojca w rodzinieojciec jako kapłan rodzinyduszpasterstwo stanoweopieka Kościoła nad ojcamiduszpasterstwo ojcówduszpasterstwo rodzinduszpasterstworodzinakapłaniKościółtroska duszpasterskaDuszpasterska troska o ojców rodzinyArticle
