Veškovce
In the Veškovce branch, parishioners meet on Sunday Holy Masses. Since the village does not have its own temple, believers meet in the premises of the community center, more precisely in the room 3 x 6m, which is separated by a wall from the community center.

In the town, the church owns two chapels, the newer one in the immediate vicinity of the parish is dedicated to Our Lady of Fatima (built in 1994) and the other on Vojanská Street.

Chapel of St. Clare
In 1996, minority sisters from Opava came to our parish. They stayed in the parish for only 10 years. After their departure, the monastery serves as a retirement home, a chapel that was built at the same time as the monastery, serves today for pastoral purpose. The patron of the chapel is St. Clare. In the chapel there is a Holy Mass in Hungarian language two times a week.
