Summary/Abstract: New forms of culture, and coming from them new ways of reasoning and moral dealing, ask about new ways of refining and disseminating culture. Christian mission in the field of culture in the third millennium is qualified by responsible understanding signs of times. In signa temporis we are able to see moral call, addressed to Christians. They must concentrate their involvement on the human person, who is the center and the way of culture in the context of integral formation and development. The presence of God in this field will make it possible to combine a moral foundation with Christian character. On this foundation it will be possible to build European culture as both unifying & various. Interpersonal communication in the field of culture should lead to real and useful dialog between different groups and nations, as well as individuals in the context of the real target of formation – to be good man. Christians in their moral mission should understand culture as an integral part of enttrely, which is human life in its individual and social dimension.
