Bishop Jan Wątroba consecrated the church of the Blessed Virgin Mary Mother of the Church in Zarębki on September 27, 2026. The ceremony, which included the consecration of the church and the altar, coincided with the 20th anniversary of the parish.

During the liturgy, parish priest Marek Prajsnar welcomed the congregation after Bishop Wątroba led the faithful into the building. The service included a presentation on the history of the parish and the construction of the church.

In his homily, Bishop Wątroba described the consecration as a unique event in the history of any church. He noted that the building resulted from the faith, sacrifices, and efforts of local residents who wanted a dedicated place for prayer and a separate parish. The bishop also thanked the first parish priest, Marek, for his role in uniting the community during the parish's development.
