Church gazette

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

An ecclesiastical gazette serves the dioceses of the Roman Catholic Church , the Old Catholic Church and the Protestant regional churches as the official publication organ for legislative and administrative acts.

Among other things, the following are published:

  • Church laws, ordinances, guidelines and orders of the church leadership
  • Statutes of the parishes , church districts , associations and other church associations
  • Budgets
  • Certificates, new and old seals, event notices, personnel news such as transfers and job postings
  • Judgments by ecclesiastical courts, overviews of case law.

During the 1950s to the 1980s, theological and church history essays were published in church official gazettes in the GDR .

In recent years, the editions have also been increasingly published online.

State legal norms only become effective if they have been promulgated in an official gazette .
