Abstract

From the very beginning of the organization of monastic life of community by writing Rules of living coenobitical by St. Basil the Great or St. John Cassian, caring for the sick and wounded, both those from among the dwellers of the monastery and foreigners, has become one of the commandments that had fulfilled by
every monastic community. This commandment, which springs from the love of God manifested in the love of neighbor, was based largely on the unity of faith professed in communion of prayer and in the instances of good. No wonder, therefore, that the first hospitals appeared in porch monasteries are known as infirmaries, and monks and nuns understood the suffering Christians to give not only spiritual but also medical assistance. On track of this tradition for centuries of the Church monks and nuns from Romanian Orthodox Church monasteries have opted to serve the health of Romanian soldiers during the First World War service that seek to point out this study.
