Ethical principles of mentoring as social support of young people
Walters, Ester ; Červenková, Denisa (advisor) ; Zimmermannová, Marie (referee)
Youth mentoring involves matching a young person who may be experiencing social, economic, or personal challenges with a volunteer mentor who serves as a positive role model, providing guidance, support, and encouragement. The mentoring relationship usually lasts for a specific period, such as a year or more, and may involve regular meetings or activities between the mentor and mentee. The goal of youth mentoring is to assist young people in developing the skills, confidence and resilience they need to overcome obstacles, challenges and achieve their full potential. This diploma thesis explores the ethics of mentoring, specifically in the context of formal youth mentoring. The primary focus of the work is centered around ethical aspects of mentoring as a means of providing social support to young individuals who are facing social exclusion. The main objective of this thesis is to examine how mentoring can provide positive social support to young individuals during times of transition, taking into account the ethical principles of mentoring and the impact of relationships on the well-being of mentored youth. The thesis aims to explore the various ways in which mentoring can be beneficial, while also considering the potential ethical risks such as power imbalances and boundary violations.

Accompanying patients in hospitals
Zemanová, Radka ; Zimmermannová, Marie (advisor) ; Prokeš, Josef (referee)
The thesis "Counselling the Sick in Hospital" deals with the issue of hospital chaplaincy in the Czech Republic. The theoretical part defines key terms (illness, accompaniment, hospital chaplain), describes the challenges of the sick, addresses the question of their value and the meaning of life during illness, and describes the stages of coping with illness. The theological excursion deals with love from a biblical perspective and concludes with a chapter on the meaning of suffering. The empirical part consists of an analysis of articles on hospital chaplaincy, primarily interviews with chaplains. The topics from the interviews were sorted by frequency into chapters (introducing the service, prejudices, death, covid, etc.), in which chaplains express their opinions from various perspectives, which complement each other, and from which a media image of chaplaincy in the Czech Republic can be assembled. The results of their testimonies are summarized in the conclusion of the thesis.

Spiritual Accompaniment with Dying People and Palliative Patiens
Cehová, Beata ; Přibyl, Stanislav (advisor) ; Zimmermannová, Marie (referee)
The bachelor's thesis "Spiritual accompaniment about dying and palliative patients" deals with the spiritual care and approach of a seriously ill patient, is not only his body and social environment but especially his soul. Although modern secularized society is technologically advanced, despite these facts, the spiritual need in our health care system is minimally themed. This is more concerned of palliative care and the care of the dying, where the goal is no longer the cure of the disease, but the treatment of pain, the symptoms of the disease and the accompaniment to a reconciled departure from this world. My work deals with these questions in more detail and clarifies which spiritual approach is possible to calm the patient through believe and how it is possible to mature spiritually even in unmanageable moments.

It reflects the state of catechesis based on the work of Sister Consilia Nováková from the Order of St. Voršila. Both sisters worked in essentially the same period and in the same community of Voršila sisters, only the places sometimes passed.

Šindelářová, Markéta ; Zimmermannová, Marie (advisor) ; Přibyl, Stanislav (referee)
The thesis is based on the experience of the author with various approaches of today's Christians to popular piety and superstitions in the context of their life and faith. At he beginning of the text questions are raised concerning maturity of these Christians' faith. In order to facilitate answers materials were gathered and processed for reflection such as: examples of accepted superstitions and practiced manifestations of popular piety; similar behaviours recorded in the Holy Writ; statements of the teaching authority of the Church regarding superstitions and popular piety manifestations; results of the theological field of catechetics concerning maturing in faith and its support in catechesis. The main method of solving the questions is a qualitative research using a questionnaire. The core of the thesis is the analysis of answers that are put into context of understanding maturity in faith and impulses for catechesis - catechesis being the instrument of the Church for promoting religious education aiming at maturity in faith.
