Roman Catholic parish church. Mary Queen of Polish

The Parish of Our Lady Queen of Poland in Dobrynin is a Roman Catholic community within the Tarnow diocese that serves as a spiritual and civic hub for Dobrynin and surrounding villages. Its historical roots extend back to 1618 in local records, reflecting a long lineage of worship, education, and service to families in the region. Through liturgy, catechesis and charitable activities, the parish sustains a visible presence in daily life and a reputation for steady pastoral care.

Church construction and official parish establishment shaped its contemporary structure. The parish church was built between 1957 and 1960 and consecrated on 18 December 1960, and the parish was officially created by Bishop Jerzy Ablewicz on 5 December 1977, establishing its governance within the Diocese of Tarnow. This history underpins its stability, ongoing ministry and commitment to serving parishioners through regular sacraments and programs.

Today the parish is led by a pastor and supported by lay catechists and volunteers, with a dedicated parish office that handles sacramental preparation, administrative needs and emergencies after evening Mass from Monday to Thursday. Parish life is enhanced by groups such as Caritas, Akcja Katolicka, and various lay apostolates, which channel resources and involvement to local families and the vulnerable. The combination of pastoral leadership, accessible administration, and active lay involvement supports consistent, respectful and personal service to parishioners.
