The people of Koluszkowo decided to build a temple in their own backyard. For this purpose, a construction committee was established, consisting mainly of railway workers and local residents, led by the station manager Teofil Leśniewski and the parish priest of Jeżów, Father Andrzej Stypułkowski (it was planned that the future church would be a branch of the Jeżów parish). The committee's tasks were not easy, it had to convince as many people as possible to support the construction and spread its noble ideas, conduct preparatory work, and above all, try to obtain funds and material goods necessary for the construction of the first Koluszkowo temple. One of the committee members, Włodzimierz Mikołajewski, donated 3 morga (1.68 ha) of land for the construction of a church and a rectory, and soon the committee had in its hands the plans for the future house of God, made free of charge by a builder from Opoczno - Wołkoński, who promised to supervise the future construction. The estimated cost of construction carried out by Antoni Sroka, a mechanical engineer, graduate of the Technical School of the Warsaw-Vienna Railway and the Faculty of Mechanics of the Karlsruhe University of Technology, was 9,998 rs. (rs. – silver rubles).
