Abstract

The article presents the right of the faithful to access sacraments and restriction of the right resulting from the outbreak of the SarsCov-2 virus pandemic in 2020. The article also presents the scope of the entitlement to the spiritual goods of the Church, which is guaranteed by the norm of canon 213 of the 1983 Code of Canon Law, as well as the spatial limits for gatherings introduced by state law and bishop’s decrees. Access to the Internet and the preservation of online communication has somehow made it possible during the ongoing social isolation to establish communication between ministers and the faithful. Therefore, it was easier to survive the restrictions on access to the Holy Sacraments.
