Kommunitätszentren in Prager Erzdiözese. Neue Orte der Gemeinwesenarbeit oder orte der Neuen Pastoral

Abstract

The article deals with the so-called community centers in the Archdiocese of Prague, which was established by the Catholic Church in large housing estates, where during Communism it was not allowed to build churches and corresponding infrastructure. The study reflects the programs these centers offer in terms of practical theology and theological concept of community work. Some findings suggest that community work is not realized in the centers explicitly, however, pastoral work of the centers contains significant elements of theological concept of community work.
