Summary/Abstract: In the 2019 Reverential Year of the Romanian Village, within the Romanian Patriarchy, we also consider the part played by rural parishes with regard to the pastoral-missionary, cultural-educational and socialphilanthropic activity. The parish is the place where we are born for eternity, the place where we pervade the route between home and the Church, the place where we acquaint with the Holy Sacraments, the place where we expect the Rising from the Dead, bearing the Cross of our Lord Jesus Christ as a sign of victory of the world. The parish, similar to this entire world, is a place of confession of the Gospel by clerics and believers, in all time and with all being, in strong faith and sacrificial love. The parish is a geographical and spiritual place where the priest carries out liturgical and pastoral-missionary activities entailing an authentically Christian religious experience.
