Misiunea în parohia postmodernă
Postmodern Parish Mission

Summary/Abstract: Missionary in its existence, the Church has a missionary mission in the world. Its unity and unicity come from the trinitarian,Christological, pneumatological, ecclesial and apostolic fundament, thusthere is no possibility for more missions different in their aim and content. The Saviour Himself was present in the urban areas (Matthew 8:5; John5:2 etc.) and in the rural areas (Luke 24: 13; Mark 14:3 etc.). After His example, the Saint Apostles took their missions to the unchristian population, Judaic or pagan, from the antique cities and the peripheralvillages. In the actual context, the Romanian urban areas and the ruralareas pass through various changes. Some regard the diminishing and the abolition of the rural space, others try to implement the principlesof postmodern urbanism in the strongly developed rural localities. In both cases, the Church, through its missionary activity inside the parish, expresses its concern about the maintenance of the Orthodox spirituality,both in the urban and rural ideas, in a form as original as possible. The village is, at least as historical example, the most palpable model of acommunity and communion life around Christ and His Church.
