Parish Charities: The Impact of the Encyclical Deus caritas est in the Environment of Bohemian Moravian Catholic Parishes

Summary/Abstract: The article refers to the request formulated by motu proprio Intima ecclesiae natura, that in every parish some form of parish charity should operate. The logic and content of this request are explained and some support points, which legitimize theologically this regulation, are summarized. To illustrate the actual situation of the Bohemian Moravian parishes, some data obtained from quantitative research on charitable activities in the pa-rishes in the Diocese Ostrava Opava are presented. The data signals a huge change potential. The regulation carried out by the Olomouc Archbishop in 2015, which defines the connection between professional catholic charities and parishes, is presented and its conformity with the request in motu proprio is assessed.
