Overview

This book presents the priesthood as a call to love and to intimate relationship with God and with the Christian community. It powerfully articulates the elements that distract and detract from pastoral charity. It also offers invaluable insights on how to become fulfilled as priest as well as efficient and effective in ministry. Though focused on the priesthood, the lay faithful can gain a lot for themselves by interacting with the reflections contained therein. -Fr. Lawrence Nwankwo (S.T.D.), Secretary Bishop of Awka Diocese Whereas frustrated and unfulfilled priests harm themselves and the people to whom they come in contact, fulfilled priests are blessings to the Church and they glorify God. I pray that the readers of this book, the Catholic priests in particular, will take the time to reflect on the contents of this book, reflect on their lives and come to a deep appreciation of their special calling, and find meaning and fulfilment therein. -Euchay Onyeizugbo (Ph.D) Clinical Psychologist and Lecturer, University of Nigeria, Nsukka. This is a work of inestimable value for today, tomorrow and subsequent generations. It is a remarkably coherent picture of the identity of the Catholic priesthood and compliments the Ratio Fundamentalis Institutionis Sacerdotalis. It is an indispensable treasure that will nourish priests in their spirituality and ministry. -Fr. Christian Amogu (S.T.D.) Pope John Paul II Major Seminary, Okpuno Awka, Nigeria.
