All the faithful are called to holiness by observing sacred times, i.e. feast days and days of penance. The catalogue of feast days in Poland comes from the Code of Canon Law, Concordat from 1993, acts of the conference of bishops authorised by the Holy See and the national legislation. The observance of fast and abstinence comes from divine law, whereas the canon law and a acts of the conference of bishops are determining times and forms of its observance.
