More wisdom from Pope Benedict XVI

 
 
 

Priestly ordination is not only a celebration for a few select men, but a celebration of the whole Church, of the whole People of God. For we all live dependent on one another, not only physically but also intellectually and spiritually.

—Pope Benedict XVI

from his book, Teaching and Learning the Love of God: Being a Priest Today

WITNESS OF LOVE

Contemporary men and women need priests to be distinguished by their determined witness to Christ. These homilies are meant to illuminate and to inspire priests to renew their commitment to “teaching and learning the love of God.” The homilies cover a wide variety of important topics on the priesthood, all deeply rooted in Scripture, including acting in persona Christi, becoming an offering with Christ for the salvation of mankind, being there for God’s mercy, and witnessing Christian joy.
