The present paper constitutes a part of the research made in the religiousness of the inhabitants of the village of Zacisze. The study aims at providing a two-fold characteristic of the religiousness of individual inhabitants made by the so called arbitrators {15 selected authorities on the subject). The first problem is how the religiousness of the villagers is reflected in „the social mirror”; the second focuses on the villagers own expression of their convictions, views and understanding of religious concepts. The study embraces 212 people {104 men and 108 women) of different age working on all kinds of farms: from the largest to the smallest. The level of the inhabitants of the village of Zacisze is above average. The people accept such truths of the faith as the existence of God, life after death, after-life accountability, and such typically Catholic truths as the divinity of Christ, Christ’s foundation of the Catholic Church, the pope’s authority in the matters concerning salvation as given by Christ in 89 to 97 per cent. The social life of the villagers is mainly centered around their parish, although they are less acknowledged with the life of the Church in Poland and in the world. Their religious attitude is largely ecumenical; in their majority their attitude towards other denominations is positive although other studies (Chlewiński 1980) have shown that actual contacts with members of other denominations are rare. The study also proved the existence of the stereotype „the Pole-Catholic”.

In this paper the author attempts to present the International and ecumenical Pastoral Care and Counselling movement which has been developing for over ten years and presently is becoming more and more dynamic and important. It was originated in protestant centres in West Germany where psychotherapeutic techniques, especially those based on group dynamics, were introduced to pastoral work. From its very beginning the movement is open to contacts with all Christian and Judaic denominations not excluding co-operation with other religious denominations. The 2nd International Congress of Pastoral Care and Counselling held in San Francisco between 10-17 August 1983 gives an occasion to present the problems of the movement. This paper, however, does not have the character of the proceedings from the congress. It constitutes an attempt to present a profound analysis of the fundamental principles of the movement, its theological-psychological foundations and an assessment of the methods applied in practical activity. The authors also give their personal reflections on the ecumenical values of the movement, possibilities of applying the methods in different religious social environments and on the movement’s prospects.
