Abstract
The work deals with the issue of the importance of Caritas in society and its place in the Bible. Special attention is paid to describing the life and work of a humanitarian Protestant woman from England, Adeline Pauline Irby, better known under the name of Miss Irby. For over fifty years she was an example of a dedicated charity activist and humanitarian worker, actively serving in Bosnia and Croatia in the late 19th and early 20th century connecting the members of different ethnic and religious backgrounds. Thus, through her volunteer charitable care for the neighbors and the needy, she witnessed her personal relationship with God.
