student media of academic pastoral care in Poland

Summary/Abstract: Benedict XVI called the Internet the “new digital arena” and “digital continent”, at the same time assigning urgent tasks to the Church in order to properly use this space and penetrate the spirit of the Gospel. He realized that “The digital world is not a parallel or purely virtual world, but for many people, especially the youngest, it is part of everyday reality.” His thought was developed and deepened by Pope Francis in the exhortation Christus vivit. He emphasized that since people not only communicate in this space, but treat it as their living environment, there is an urgent need to send cyber missionaries. Their task is to preach the message of Jesus Christ to young people and to contribute to building the community of the Church. An extremely interesting field to examine how the teaching of recent popes was received is the media of academic pastoral care in Poland. They represent the special case of academic media. The use of new communication technologies still remains a pastoral challenge, especially for young people.
