PASTORAL PROGRAMMING OF CHURCH WORK

Alojzije Čondić ; Catholic Faculty of Theology, University of Split

Abstract

Discussing the pastoral work, the author discusses the
role of local Church before the demands and role of pastoral
programme. Many local Churches and parish communities do not
have realizable pastoral programmes. However, the fact that many
deny or wrongly understand and experience the need for pastoral
programmes gives cause for concern. Working on that, the author
of the article writes about terminology, which is often, viewed
through theological-pastoral aspect, incorrectly interpreted and
understood. The author treats the basics characteristics of church
work and analyzes the Church community as being the explicit
bearer of church work and elaboration of pastoral programme.
The writer discusses the sense, purpose and reasons of production
of pastoral programme, explaining the way of creating the
programme. In the end he briefly presents the essence and trials
of pastoral projects in contemporary democratic society.
The author uses the experiential-judgemental-theological
way, trying to clarify the church reality and need for pastoral
programming in the church work.
