Abstact:
Interpretation of church heritage as part of general local and global culture, and organizing of parish socialisation as social enculturation are neutral educational-informational approaches of adopting Christian values and Orthodox traditions as elements of Bulgarian identity formation. Contemporary church-based education and socialisation relies on most recent pedagogical methods and approaches, gradually becomes a part of the whole system of social care, and combines adequate experiences with actual processes of individual development. Even in socialism, when state youth policies had been ideologised, link of religious heritages with local patriotic and global tourist values provided people at all ages with aformal religious culture. In earlier past youth had been educated and socialised religiously along real Orthodox Church life and its specificities regarding modernisation. In future the innovation of historical experience in the representation and socialisation of the specific theological heritage, sometimes expressed in clerical and monastic vocation, will still be socially and culturally challenging to all stakeholders.
