Summary/Abstract: Education has the status of art, convincing by word and deed, demonstrating a strong collective action. Education of children is considered the greatest charity and most noble action that man can commit, and its mission is considered similar to Christian priesthood. The family is the cornerstone in the training and education of small children. Church and family continually lead to the development of man, the inner part, in order to restore him in the primary beauty, even more, to raise him up to the charm of deifi cation. Through the church, the believer receives the mind of Christ and becomes Church of the living God. Fathers of the Church qualify this status of the Church as the hardest and most honorable of all the work and responsibilities of those committ ed to human education. The pedagogy of Church Fathers is very useful also in our most troubled days.
