Summary/Abstract: Pastoral accompaniment of spouses in the development of faith is part of the essence of the Church’s salvific activity towards people living in the sacrament of marriage. The pastoral accompaniment of the spouses is realized by the presbyters through evangelization, the preaching of the word of God, the catechesis of the spouses and parents, sacramental ministry and spiritual direction, and finally especially through the holiness of priestly life. The research carried out among the clergy of the Archdiocese of Przemyśl has shown the need for permanent formation of the presbyters to support the pastoral accompaniment of the spouses and motivate the clergy for this ministry.
