Overview

The book, Organization of the Christian Faithful in the Parish for Active Participation in the Mission and Ministry of the Church, authored by Rev. Fr. Professor Cosmas Aluede Ojemen, presents the reader of this well written book a rich fountain. A meticulous reader will find he or she is very much enlightened in parish organization. The author has put together in Nine Chapters the functions of the parish priest; and the role of lay faithful as they actively participate in the mission of the Church. ..... A parish, as public juridical person, is called to act in the name of the Church in fulfilling the mission of the Church. The theological declaration that the Church of Christ subsists and manifests itself in the local church is made more visible with regards to the organs that help to administer the Church. The parish priest as the juridical representative of the parish is expected to administer the Christian community entrusted to his care under the authority of the diocesan bishop with a mind-set that is rooted in collaborative ministry in the mission. This book presents a unique perspective to the concrete ways the parish can be effective in the mission of the Church through pastoral initiatives that recognises the roles of each faithful and each association in the work of evangelization.
