The paper entitled, Social Activities of the Catholic Church and Romanian Orthodox Church in Banat Region (Romania) at the beginning of the New Millennium: Perception and Impacts" was born out of the specific situation of Christians, both catholic and orthodox, in the Roman-Catholic Diocese of Timișoara and in the Orthodox Metropolis of Banat. The theoretical basis for the present research starts from the importance and significance of the social dimension that faith has in the life of Christians, with a particular focus on the social doctrine of the Catholic Church. Since the orthodox are the majority religious community, we found it necessary and interesting, in addition to the social activities of the Catholic Church, to explore and describe the social activities of the Orthodox Church within the Metropolis of Banat. The first chapter, entitled "The social dimension of faith as a starting point for concrete action", presents the basic ideas of the Church's social doctrine and the basic principles of social and charitable activity in various forms. This is followed by two chapters dealing more specifically with the Church's social activities. The second chapter entitled "Social activities of the Diocese of Timisoara in the last two decades" brings to the fore a rich branch and numerous charitable and social activities of the Catholic Diocese in this area of Romania from 2000 to 2018. These represent various services, social actions, projects, and activities of the church, but also extremely significant for the Romanian society. The third chapter "Social actions of the Romanian Orthodox Church in the Banat region" describes the social and charitable activities of the Orthodox Church with its specificity and certain differences in relation to the Catholic Church, which is linked to other local Churches in Europe, especially regarding charitable actions. The fourth chapter "Social actions of state and private institutions" briefly presents the social activities of state institutions and social services of non-governmental organizations. The paper also sought to highlight the difference between the social actions of the church and those of the state. This is why it was important to show the applicability of the church's social actions in relation to the beneficiaries - people in need. In other words, the way in which beneficiaries of charitable social services perceive the Church, both the catholic and the orthodox. In this regard, an empirical study was conducted among beneficiaries of social services, with a special focus on their perception of social services and charitable actions carried out by catholic and orthodox churches in Banat, Romania. The results of the research are very interesting and useful for further studies and interpretations, as they indicate certain differences in the way catholic and orthodox beneficiaries of social services experience the charitable-social action of these two sister Churches. As a conclusion of this bachelor’s thesis, I can indicate the following results: the existence of diverse and complex social services provided by the Church and the constant need to develop and improve them according to current needs and adaptability to the challenges of today's society; the significant and visible influence of the social actions undertaken by the Church in the lives of the beneficiaries of social services; the direct link between the life of faith and qualitative social activity; the contribution to the spiritual life of modern man through charitable social actions both within and outside the Church.
