Summary/Abstract: After the Velvet Revolution and twenty years of freedom in the Slovak society and the Catholic Church in Slovakia the Church looks for the new way for a pastoral work. She decided to make the pastoral plan for the next decade of these years and now we have the second “version” of it. The new Pastoral Plan of the Catholic Church in Slovakia for the years 2007-2013 asks for the new potential especially in the field of social work in our parishes. It makes some conclusions about the situation and shows the new forms of work for some groups of the structure of the Slovak society. This article illustrates the situation which was before the Plan was made and shows some conditions which the plan is going to change. All this situation is just the beginning for the next step in the new dimension of the pastoral help, and pastoral care, in the multicultural community like our society already is.
