In contrast to the 1991 coalition, the Catholic Electoral Committee "Fatherland" downplayed national-Catholicism in favor of more moderate image, and tried to attract centre-right voters.

The electoral coalition initially sought to expand by the Polish People's Party – Peasants' Agreement (PSL-PL), however, the Peasant's Agreement rejected joining the coalition due to their resentment of PK leader Aleksander Hall and SLCh leader Artur Balazs.

The Polish bishops drafted a pastoral letter that encouraged participation in the elections and stated in it that "bishops and priests do not engage in public party-political discussions, do not stand for parliament and do not participate in the election campaign, but they point out the moral principles and criteria that, in accordance with the teachings of the Church, Catholics should follow when choosing their representatives.

"[4] In view of this, the coalition tried to attract Catholic voters without the overt support of the Church by defending the presence of religion in schools, the Concordat with the Holy See adopted at the end of July, and acting in the constitutional debate to guarantee mutual independence.

Krzysztof Oksiuta, the head of the electoral staff of "Ojczyzna" and at the same time a politician of the SLCh, also claimed that the coalition received offers of cooperation from lay Catholics during the election campaign: "Parish councils and other Church-related circles themselves are trying to reach us.

[5] The coalition survived until the 1994 Polish local elections, where the member parties run again under a joint electoral list named "Fatherland".

The need to adhere to Catholic moral values was presented as not only the matter of social conservatism, but was also referred to in terms of anti-corruption.
