Abstract

Although many books have been written about the communist era in our country, many memoirs and documentaries, we shall attempt to capture „the bright side”, to emphasize the sacrificial profession, the service to the neighbor and God in a place of torment , torture and isolation - the prison-, to emphasize the spiritual benefit of suffering. Even though we live in a free democratic society, where we enjoy certain rights and privileges, unfortunately we become more introverted, more selfish, uninterested in our neighbor and the worst thing, we get further away from God. The dark period of communism, which made many thousands of victims in our country, it is as if it wants to stay in the shadows, and not infrequently it can be noticed an attempt to deform or hide the sad truth. Consequently, through this work, we want to highlight the extraordinary moral value of the communist prisons confessors, that we also improper and let it guide us to the supreme goal of every Christian: salvation.
