Summary/Abstract: After the liberation from the Ottoman Empire, the Bulgarian Orthodox Church began to actively care for Christians in Bulgaria. The Church does not limit care giving to the spiritual needs of people; it also provided material help by developing broad social activity. Both the high clergy and the ordinary clergy and Christians are active units in this activity. The period before the Second World War was a time of comprehensive development of church activities for those in need of medical help, shelter and care.
