Summary/Abstract: This corpus-based approach aims at identifying and analyzing the typology, structure and role of discursive person deictic (indexical) elements in conveying an oral message in different communicative religious contexts. The latter ones are characterized by specific data of enunciation and they correspond to some distinct discursive genres of the orthodox religious discourse from the functional point of view: religious lectures and lessons, occasional sermons, homilies, exhortations, paraeneses, etc. Having in view that deixis is one of the most important aspects of discourse pragmatic structure, the present study emphasizes that the enunciation elements find their reference by relating themselves to the real data of the situation of communication.
