Summary/Abstract: Christian education should be concentrated on three fundamental values. It has to be education aiming at faith, hope and love. The pupil should be brought to learn about Jesus Christ and to establish a personal relation with Him, as well as he should be taught to understand and to love the Church. Faith in the life of a Christian is inextricably connected with hope. A believer is not only concentrated on his earthly life, but he makes this life a means for achieving eternal happiness. Eucharist is a true source of Christian hope. Education for faith and hope finds an actual confirmation in acts of love. A person educated for love is able to share it with his neighbors, even at the price of giving himself up.
