Abstract

The general topic of the analysis of the author aims to observe several facets of the manifestation of pastoral work in local communities. To highlight this, the author considers it very important to understand how the Church implements her canonical decisions so that the faithful are supported in their spiritual life according to a good management of the means available to the Church (oikonomia) and by showing pastoral discernment both at the personal and community level. In order to achieve this goal, the author analyses the way in which these two notions are present in the documents promulgated by the Council of Trullo (691-692). The whole pastoral ministry of the Church is a manifestation of ecclesial discernment. The canons of the Council in Trullo are fundamental texts of the Church which bring together the entire canonical tradition highlighting the relationship between the pastoral discernment of the servants of Christ and the freedom of those who seek spiritual healing. An important role is given to Canon 102 of the Council of Trullo.
