Summary/Abstract: Nowadays, when communication through the modern technological means is able to reach us anywhere and anytime almost 24/7 with a powerful influence, it is of a great importance for the religious communication of the catholic dioceses in Transylvania to keep the rhythm of this new wave, if it wants to efficiently spread the word of God not only among the people of strong faith, but also among the faithless people. It should be of a great advantage for the Catholic Church in Transylvania to find the right channels and means to get its message published in the lay mass media, hoping to achieve a greater impact in the field of the new evangelization. The author is talking about a proactive communication campaign, not a defensive one, where the Church gets space in the lay mass media only in case of major scandal situations.
