  • Holy Orders in the Sacrament of Holy Orders, There Are Three Degrees Or “Orders”: Bishop, Priest, and Deacon
    Holy Orders In the Sacrament of Holy Orders, there are three degrees or “orders”: bishop, priest, and deacon. The rite of ordination is the sacramental act that makes this possible. Ordination “confers a gift of the Holy Spirit that permits the exercise of a ‘sacred power’ . which can come only from Christ himself through the Church” (CCC, no. 1538). Bishops: By ordination to the episcopacy, bishops receive the fullness of the Sacrament of Holy Orders and become successors of the Apostles. Through this Sacrament, a bishop belongs to the college of bishops and serves as the visible head or pastor of the local church entrusted to his care. As a college, the bishops have care and concern for the apostolic mission of all the churches in union with and under the authority of the Pope—the head of the college of bishops, the Bishop of Rome, and the successor of St. Peter. Priests: By ordination, “priests are united with the bishops in [priestly] dignity and at the same time depend on them in the exercise of their pastoral functions; they are called to be the bishops’ prudent co-workers” (CCC, no. 1595). With the bishop, priests form a presbyteral (priestly) community and assume with him the pastoral mission for a particular parish. The bishop appoints priests to the pastoral care of parishes and to other diocesan ministries. The priest promises obedience to the bishop in service to God’s people. Deacons: The title deacon comes from the Greek word diakonia meaning “servant.” A deacon has a special attachment to the bishop in the tasks of service and is configured to Christ, the Deacon—or Servant—of all (cf.

  • The Holy See
    The Holy See COMMON DECLARATION OF HIS HOLINESS PAUL VI AND HIS HOLINESS PATRIARCH AMBA SHENOUDA III Thursday, 10 May 1973 Paul VI, Bishop of Rome and Pope of the Catholic Church, and Shenouda III, Pope of Alexandria and Patriarch of the See of St Mark, give thanks in the Holy Spirit to God that, after the great event of the return of relics of St Mark to Egypt, relations have further developed between the Churches of Rome and Alexandria so that they have now been able to meet personally together. At the end of their meetings and conversations they wish to state together the following: We have met in the desire to deepen the relations between our Churches and to find concrete ways to overcome the obstacles in the way of our real cooperation in the service of our Lord Jesus Christ who has given us the ministry of reconciliation, to reconcile the world to Himself (2 Cor. 5, 18-20). In accordance with our apostolic traditions transmitted to our Churches and preserved therein, and in conformity with the early three ecumenical councils, we confess one faith in the One Triune God, the divinity of the Only Begotten Son of God, the Second Person of the Holy Trinity, the Word of God, the effulgence of His glory and the express image of His substance, who for us was incarnate, assuming for Himself a real body with a rational soul, and who shared with us our humanity but without sin. We confess that our Lord and God and Saviour and King of us all, Jesus Christ, is perfect God with respect to His divinity, perfect man with respect to His humanity.

In the Eastern Catholic Churches and in the Eastern Orthodox Church , married deacons may be ordained priests but may not become bishops. The deacon's liturgical ministry includes various parts of the Mass proper to the deacon, including being an ordinary minister of Holy Communion and the proper minister of the chalice when Holy Communion is administered under both kinds. A candidate for holy orders must be a baptized male who has reached the required age, has attained the appropriate academic standard, is of suitable character, and has a specific clerical position awaiting him. Who would be the human priest to whom Christ would give the power of making the God-Man present upon the altar, under the appearances of bread and wine? Once a man has been ordained, he is spiritually changed, which is the origin of the saying, "Once a priest, always a priest.

    The Sacrament of Holy Orders RCIA – St. Mary and Newman Center, Iowa City, Iowa Presenter: Deacon Joe Welter 11 November 2018, Thirty-second Sunday in Ordinary Time Holy Orders Three distinct orders: Episcopate (Bishops) Presbyterate (Priests) Diaconate (Deacons) Holy Orders is the sacrament through which the mission entrusted by Christ to his apostles continues to be exercised in the Church until the end of time: thus it is the sacrament of apostolic ministry. CCC 1536 Early History of the Sacrament New Testament Understandings “The Twelve” No evidence in the New Testament that they appointed successors “Apostles” May refer to the 12 (witnesses of the resurrection) Not always Paul, Barnabas – Acts 14:14 “Disciples” Only found in Gospels and Acts Other appointments 70 in Luke 10:1-17 7 in Acts 6:1-6 Episkopos (Bishops) Presbyteros (Priests) Presbyteros (Priests) Diakonos (Deacons) Diakonos (Deacons) Ordination Ordinatio means incorporation into an ordo (order) The word order in Roman antiquity designated an established civil body, especially a governing body. In the Church there are established bodies which Tradition, not without a basis in Sacred Scripture, has since ancient times called taxeis (Greek) or ordines. And so the liturgy speaks of the ordo episcoporum, the ordo presbyterorum, the ordo diaconorum. Other groups also receive this name of ordo: catechumens, virgins, spouses, widows CCC 1537 - 1538 Ordination Integration into one of these bodies in the Church was accomplished by a rite called ordinatio, a religious and liturgical act which was a consecration, a blessing or a sacrament. Today the word "ordination" is reserved for the sacramental act which integrates a man into the order of bishops, presbyters, or deacons CCC 1538 Ordination Beyond a simple election, designation, delegation, or institution by the community Confers a gift of the Holy Spirit that permits the exercise of a "sacred power" (sacra potestas) which can come only from Christ himself through his Church.

  • A Review of Dissident Sacramental Theology
    A REVIEW OF DISSIDENT SACRAMENTAL THEOLOGY Five years ago it was my privilege to address this Society, making a cursory review of the main points on which Catholics and Orthodox disagree in the realm of dogmatic theology. These points are neither too numerous nor too difficult to preclude a harmonious solution. The most fundamental issue is the primacy of the pope. But even here, since the Orthodox already believe in the infallibility of the Church and in an honorary primacy of the Bishop of Rome in that Church, it might not be too sanguine to posit the possibility of arriving at an understanding of the pope as the mouthpiece of the infallible Church. This year the officers of the Society have requested a review of Orthodox sacramental practice in the hope that this might furnish some summary of Orthodox moral theology by providing a glimpse of the actual religious life in an Orthodox parish, as well as bring- ing our Catholic theologians up to date on the practical questions they must face regarding intercommunion if any reunion should ever be achieved. At the outset we should express the caution that in this practical as well as in the theoretical sphere, we must beware of absolute predications—because there is apt to be a divergency of practice between the various national groups of Orthodox and even within the same national group. The chief bodies of Orthodox—at least as far as theological leadership is concerned—are the Greeks and the Russians. Usually the Syrian and Albanian Orthodox will follow Greek practice, while the various Slav groups like the Serbs, Bulgars and Ukrainians will be content to follow the hegemony of the Russian Orthodox Church.

    CATHOLIC CHRISTIANITY THE LUKE E. HART SERIES CATHOLIC INFORMATION SERVICE® True Catholic Information. Not Mere Opinions. How Catholics Pray In the case of coming generations, the lay faithful must offer the very valuable contribution, more necessary than ever, of a systematic work in catechesis. The Synod Fathers have gratefully taken note of the work of catechists, acknowledging that they "have a task that carries great importance in animating ecclesial communities.” It goes without saying that Christian parents are the primary and irreplaceable catechists of their children…; however, we all ought to be aware of the "rights" that each baptized person has to being instructed, educated and supported in the faith and the Christian life.

McGivney, is the world’s largest lay Catholic organization, with more than 1.9 million members in the Americas, Europe, and Asia. The Knights support each other and their community, contributing millions of volunteer hours to charitable causes each year. The Knights were the first to financially support the families of law enforcement and fire department personnel killed in the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 and to work closely with Catholic bishops to protect innocent human life and traditional marriage.

  • Topic 24 (2): Holy Orders
    TOPIC 24 (2): HOLY ORDERS 1. Christ’s priesthood From among the people of Israel, designated as a kingdom of priests in Ex 19:6, the tribe of Levi was chosen by God for the service of the Tabernacle of the Testimony (Num 1:50). Then, from among the tribe of Levi, the priests of the Old Covenant were consecrated with a rite of anointing (cf. Ex 29:1-7), giving them their special task: every high priest chosen among men is appointed to act on behalf of men in relation to God, to offer gifts and sacrifices for sins (Heb 5:1). As part of the Mosaic Law, by this priesthood a better hope [was] introduced (Heb 7:19), a shadow of the good things to come (Heb 10:1); but of itself it [could] never, by the same sacrifices continually offered year after year, make perfect those who [drew] near (Heb 10:1). The Levitical priesthood in some way prefigured among the chosen people the full realization of the priesthood in Jesus Christ—a priesthood linked not to genealogy, nor to temple sacrifices, nor to the Law, but only to God himself (cf. Heb 6:17-20 and 7:1ff). Hence Christ was designated by God a high priest after the order of Melchizedek (Heb 5:10); for by a single offering he has perfected for all time those who are sanctified (Heb 10:14). And truly the Word of God made flesh, in fulfilment of the messianic prophecies, redeemed all men and women by his death and resurrection, giving his own life in fulfilment of his priestly role.

  • Stages of Formation: Candidacy
    1 OFFICE OF THE DIACONATE DIACONAL FORMATION CANDIDATE PATH OF FORMATION INTRODUCTION The candidate path in diaconal formation is the occasion for continued discernment of a diaconal vocation and immediate preparation for ordination. Throughout this path of formation, the candidate himself assumes the primary responsibility for his discernment and development. The candidate must show responsibility and dynamism responding with generosity to God’s call and he should be determined to grow in life according to the Spirit and in conformity with the vocation received. LENGTH OF FORMATION In accord with Canon Law, the Basic Norms for the Formation of Permanent Deacons, the National Directory for the Formation, Ministry and Life of Permanent Deacons in the United States, and our diocesan needs, the period of candidate formation is four years. Readiness for ordination is assessed annually by both the candidate and the Council of Formators to ascertain what level of achievement the candidate has reached in his understanding of the diaconal vocation, its responsibilities, and its obligations. Assessment also includes: 1. His growth in the spiritual life 2. His competency in required diaconal knowledge and skills 3. His practical experience in pastoral ministry 4. His witness of human and affective maturity 5. If candidate is married, an appraisal of his wife’s readiness and consent is also to be made. CANDIDATE PATH: AN INTEGRAL AND SUBSTANTIVE PROGRAM The objective is to guarantee the implementation of an integral and substantive program of formation that adequately prepares a candidate to represent the Church as a deacon. The program includes: 1. Class preparation, participation and attendance 2.
