Roman Catholic Parish. St. Luke the Evangelist

What Roman Catholic Parish. St. Luke the Evangelist does

Roman Catholic Parish of St. Luke the Evangelist (Rzymskokatolicka Parafia pw. św. Łukasza Ewangelisty na Kępie Tarchomińskiej) is a religious non-profit organization located at ul. Sprawna on Kępa Tarchomińska in the Tarchomin district of Warsaw, Poland. The parish serves local Catholic faithful through regular worship services (six weekly Masses Monday-Saturday, five Sunday Masses), sacramental administration (baptism, confirmation, marriage preparation courses, funerals), adoration, confession, and pastoral counseling including a family counseling service (Poradnia rodzinna). The parish is canonically governed by the Roman Catholic Diocese of Warsaw (Diecezja Warszawska) and operates under the spiritual direction of clergy including ks. Marcin Bodziak, who serves as duszpasterz (spiritual leader) for the youth community and liturgical ministers. Headcount is 5 employees, supported by an extensive volunteer base organized into more than 10 ministry groups including Caritas, Parish Choir, Home Church, Living Rosary Circles, prayer groups for those with alcohol addiction, Ministers and Lectors, Youth Community of St. Stanisław Kostka, Parents' Rosary for Children (Różaniec Rodziców za Dzieci), Knights of St. John Paul II (Rycerze Św. Jana Pawła II), and a Parish and Economic Council.

The parish's underlying technology is modest: a Joomla CMS website (swlukasz.pl) built on a JooThemes.net Church Free Joomla Template, used for announcements, Mass schedules, sacramental information, community-group pages, event galleries, and liturgical resources. The physical facility includes a newly consecrated church (consecration ceremonies in 2023) constructed over a period spanning 2008-2019 and opened for worship on December 25, 2013, equipped with heat pump technology for heating. The parish is not a commercial entity and has no app, no APIs, no SDKs, and no disclosed digital product offerings beyond the website.

The parish operates on a donation-based, non-commercial revenue model. All religious services are provided free of charge; there is no pricing applied to sacraments, Mass intentions, or pastoral services. Funding derives entirely from voluntary donations and tithes from parishioners, deposited into the parish bank account publicly listed as 41 1050 1025 1000 0090 3018 2050. The parish office (Kancelaria Parafialna) operates limited hours (Tuesday 19:00-20:00, Thursday 17:00-17:45, Saturday 9:00-10:00). Distribution is exclusively physical and in-person at the church location, with no e-commerce or digital distribution. Marketing is community-led, conducted through the parish website, Sunday announcements during Mass, and recommendations to Catholic press such as Idziemy and Gość Niedzielny.

Emerging players

• Parafia Ewangelicko-Augsburska Świętej Trójcy w Warszawie: The principal Lutheran (Evangelical-Augsburg) parish in Warsaw, serving a different Christian denomination in the same city. Comparable as a Christian worship community with regular services, community groups, and donor-based funding competing for the same urban Warsaw religious population, although denominationally distinct.

Direct peers

• Parafia św. Stanisława Kostki w Warszawie: A well-known Warsaw Roman Catholic parish and the namesake patron of St. Luke's Youth Community. Operates under the same diocese with comparable Mass schedules, sacramental programs, and youth ministry depth, serving as a benchmark peer for parish community programming in Warsaw.
• Parafia św. Andrzeja Boboli w Warszawie: A Jesuit-administered Roman Catholic parish in central Warsaw known for strong youth and intellectual programming. Comparable as a Warsaw parish under Catholic governance with extensive ministry offerings and similar donor-based funding model.
• Parafia św. Jana Kantego w Warszawie: Another Roman Catholic parish in Warsaw explicitly referenced in the data as the home parish of a parishioner (Mikołaj Subocz) preparing for marriage at St. Luke's. Operates under the same Diocese of Warsaw with similar sacramental, Mass, and community ministry offerings, making it a directly comparable local peer.
• Kościół św. Krzyża w Warszawie: A historic Roman Catholic parish church in central Warsaw serving a mixed resident and visitor population. Comparable as a diocesan Catholic parish with regular Mass schedule, sacraments, and donor-funded operations, though in a more tourist-exposed location.
• Bazylika archikatedralna św. Jana Chrzciciela (Archcathedral Basilica of St. John the Baptist): The mother church of the Archdiocese of Warsaw and the principal Roman Catholic worship site in central Warsaw. While larger and more central, it offers the same core sacramental and liturgical services and competes for the same pool of Warsaw Catholic faithful, making it a comparable although much larger peer.

Broad incumbents

• Kuria Metropolitalna Warszawska (Metropolitan Curia of Warsaw): The central governing body of the Warsaw Diocese under which St. Luke's operates. Provides priestly assignments, episcopal oversight, diocesan-wide formation, and centralized administration — the institutional incumbent against which parish-level operations are organized.
• Caritas Polska: The national charitable and social outreach arm of the Roman Catholic Church in Poland. Parishes like St. Luke's operate local Caritas groups as one of their ministries, making Caritas Polska the institutional peer and umbrella organization for the parish's charitable programming.
