The Priest, Pastor and Leader of the Parish Community
$4.95
By the Congregation for the Clergy
This "Instruction" has the underlying purpose of directing particular affection toward those priests who carry out their precious office as parish priests and who, though beset by many challenges, are always in the midst of their people...this gives rise to a proper understanding of the priestly identity and the essential sacramental dimension of the ordained minister.
As it has been the intent to follow in line indicated by the Holy Father (Pope John Paul II) in his allocution to the Plenary Assembly of the Congregation, which is particularly rich in its practicality, it appears helpful to append.
