Many young men and women are often confused when it comes to choosing their vocations and careers. According to Pope John Paul II in PastoresDaboVobis, “Each Christian vocation comes from God and is God’s gift. However, it is never bestowed outside of or independently of the Church. Instead it always comes about in the Church and through the Church a luminous and living reflection of the mystery of the Blessed Trinity.” What churches are doing with youth is commendable. Pope John Paul II earned the confidence of young people because he took them seriously. They sensed that he understood their concerns. He challenged them to give their lives to Christ. He appealed to their high ideals, inviting them to take a lead in the New Evangelization. Amidst the contemporary challenges facing young people, it would be appropriate to find ways of helping youth discern God’s call in their daily struggles. This implies learning to discern God’s voice hidden in the chaos of other worldly voices. The worldly allurements seem to have a great impact amongst youth. They therefore require some guidance from their parents and spiritual leaders in order for them to make the right decisions. This article looks at how Pope John Paul II treated the issue of vocational discernment among young people.

Slovenians fill the churches on Holy Saturday, when they bring Easter food to be blessed. Most faithful Slovenes cannot imagine an Easter feast without a blessed ham, but they do not have a problem with the fact that they do not attend the ceremonial Easter Mass. This is why all the parish churches and many chapels in Slovenia are fully occupied on Holy Saturday. The question arises: Is this a living or dead tradition of popular piety? At first glance, it could be said that it is very much alive, but if we search more deeply, we could say that it is dead, because it has become only a matter of custom for many, a habit which no longer has any real connection to the reality of the Easter holiday itself. In this discussion, the author tries to answer the question of when popular piety is a living tradition and when it is not. First, he briefly presents the relevant terminology. In the second section, he describes when popular piety is a living tradition, and in the third, when it is dead. In the final section, he points to the need for wise pastoral discernment and action so that popular piety will remain a living tradition that helps lead to the fullness of life in the spirit of the gospel.

Słoweńcy wypełniają kościoły w Wielką Sobotę. W tym dniu przynoszą świąteczne jedzenie, aby je pobłogosławić. Najwierniejsi Słoweńcy nie wyobrażają sobie wielkanocnego święta bez błogosławionej szynki, ale nie mają problemu z tym, że nie idą na świąteczną Mszę wielkanocną. Dlatego w Słowenii wszystkie parafialne kościoły i liczne kaplice są pełne w Wielką Sobotę. Powstaje pytanie: czy jest to żywa czy martwa tradycja pobożności ludowej? Kierując się pierwszym wrażeniem można powiedzieć, że jest to przejaw żywotności. Jeśli zgłębimy problem, możemy stwierdzić, że jest to coś martwego, ponieważ dla wielu stało się to tylko kwestią nawyku, który nie ma już prawdziwego związku z rzeczywistością samego święta wielkanocnego. W niniejszym artykule autor stara się odpowiedzieć na pytanie o to, kiedy popularna pobożność jest żywą tradycją, a kiedy nie? Najpierw krótko przedstawia terminologię, następnie opisuje, kiedy ludowa pobożność jest żywą tradycją, by na końcu zwrócić uwagę na potrzebę mądrego duszpasterskiego rozeznawania i działania, aby ludowa pobożność pozostała żywą tradycją, która pomaga osiągnąć pełnię życia w duchu Ewangelii.
