Rawicz-Kostro, Karol2025-06-132025-06-132016Studia Bydgoskie, 2016, Tom 10, s. 321-336.1898-9837https://theo-logos.pl/handle/123456789/32514The practice of accepting offerings and applying the Mass for the donor’s intentions is both a privilege and a duty of each priest, especially a parish priest, who makes certain that commitments resulting from accepted donations are fulfilled. The article discusses the Catholic Church’s recent legislation, specifically John Paul II’s Code of Canon Law and those guidelines and legal documents of the Holy See that determine the principles of accepting donations, celebrating Masses or transferring offerings related to Mass intentions. All this intends to prevent even the semblance of trading or commercially treating the Eucharist. Therefore, for the sake of maintaining standards, including financial aspects, that allow a dignified celebration of the Eucharistic Sacrifice, the paper also provides some of the specific pastoral guidelines for Bydgoszcz diocese priests.plCC-BY-SA - Uznanie autorstwa - Na tych samych warunkachofiara mszalnaprawodawstwo kościelneprawodawstwoprawo kościelnediecezja bydgoskadiecezjeprawo kanoniczneEucharystiaMsza świętaintencje mszalneaplikacja Mszy świętejKodeks Prawa KanonicznegoMass offeringChurch legislationlegislationecclesiastical lawdiocese of Bydgoszczdiocesescanon lawEucharistMassMass intentionsCode of Canon LawArticle
