Summary/Abstract: Religion completes the education of any child. As regards the child from the orphanage, the religion implanted it’s essence into the child’s culture and personality, helping him to overcome the psychological problems caused by the various disorders and to behave like any other member of society. In an era in which moral values decentralization persists and deepens, the rethinking of education components and their importance is more than necessary. Religion turns out to be a real saving solution towards the psychological balance of the child from the special protection system. Through his prism, people are being able to search with the soul also, not just with the mind.The plea that I want to do to enhance and increase the religious education of children from foster carecenters comes from the belief that education is a work of spirituality that does not reach fullness if she omits one of it’s fundamental components. Human beings relate to reality pragmatically, through intellect, will, action, and also spiritually through attitudes, feelings, and beliefs. An integral education assumes in addition to the moral, aesthetic and technological sides, a religious component. Through the prism of religion, one can also study with the soul, not just with the mind, but this requires faith in God's wonderful force. Where rational science can not clarify some doubts, faith comes into play. The present study seeks to provide the integrative solution for children from foster care centers offered by religious teachers, and not only, by attracting them to learn and to practice the Christian values acquired during religious and cultivated classes in the everyday life.
