Summary/Abstract: Concern for the liturgical life of the community of believers is reflected in sensitivity to the correct shape of celebration. Normative basis for the proper development of the liturgy is undoubtedly the Code of Canon Law and legal norms formed by the plane of the local church. Such a source of law for the Diocese of Kielce becomes the first Synod of Kielce (1927), which in its statements take very extensively the issue of the sacraments. For this reason has stimulated this study, which deals with the Sacraments of Baptism, Confirmation and Eucharist. The analysis applies not only to the provisions of the Synod, but above all they are consistent with universally binding law. It becomes also snapshot of the passage of the liturgy in the Diocese of Kielce at the beginning of the twentieth century.
