Summary/Abstract: This paper presents the attempt of answering the question if there is a change of the initiants’ status and what is the nature of such change, based on the fieldwork done in Belgrade, Novi Sad and Bečej. The broader sociocultural frame is orientated by Serbian urban Orthodox population, and the narrow one by the distinction between the "active" worshipers and the "declarative" ones, as well by the age groups of adults and infants.
