The parish trusteeships, which arose during the period of the "Great Reforms", as public organizations for more than 50 years of their activity have become an integral part not only of the Orthodox parish, but also of Russian public life as a whole. The catch phrase that became widely known: "It is not difficult to open Parish guardianship offices, but it is difficult to breathe life into them" testified to the hopes that contemporaries placed on the implementation of the adopted "Regulations on Parish Guardianship in Orthodox Churches." Educational and charitable activities, which have become the main purpose of the existence of parish curacies, on the one hand, should have contributed to the development of society, and on the other hand, is closely related to the increasing need for culture and education. There is a tradition in Russian historiography of a rather restrained or even critical assessment of the results of the guardianship activities. However, no special systematic studies have been conducted yet, and therefore it is too early to make any assessments of this social phenomenon. Based on a large amount of factual material, the author examines various aspects of the activities of parish guardianship authorities in the Ural region using the example of the Perm Diocese. Here, an attempt is made to analyze the regulatory framework, as well as statistical data that allow us to draw conclusions about the scale and effectiveness of trusteeship activities. The article comprehensively uses both published and unpublished sources. New sources are being introduced into scientific circulation. The study of the main directions of the socio-cultural activities of parish curacies allows us to open new pages in the history of the church, as well as in the history of charity, public education, libraries, and the general socio-cultural life of Russian society in the second half of the 19th and early 20th centuries.References
