Document Details : Title: Priesthood in Persona Christi Subtitle: The Substance of Things Hoped for Author(s): HADLEY, John Journal: Louvain Studies Volume: 33 Issue: 3-4 Date: 2008 Pages: 221-235 DOI: 10.2143/LS.33.3.2045798 Abstract : This article reflects on the sacramentality of the priesthood, and, in particular, the sign-value of the person of the priest acting ‘in persona Christi’. Conclusions are drawn regarding the reasons why all priests should embrace ongoing formation, and the need for the ongoing formation of the presbyterium to be considered as a fifth ‘focus’ for ongoing priestly formation, alongside the four foci (personal, intellectual, spiritual, pastoral) identified in Pastores Dabo Vobis. |
