As a young man, Peter Baldacchino was ada- mant. “I wouldn’t touch the priest- hood with a 10-foot pole.” But God obviously had other plans for Miami’s new auxiliary bishop, and they began to take shape at the 1989 World Youth Day in Santiago de Compostela, Spain. “When I arrived there, the first thing I heard — we were late in ar- riving — was the voice of Pope John Paul II saying, ‘Do not be afraid to be holy.’ And I thought, ‘Well, I bet- ter take my bag and go back home because this is not for me.’ “I didn’t understand what it means to be holy,” Bishop Baldac- The Baldacchino siblings are, from left, John, the third oldest; Patrick, chino, 53, explained during a brief Paula’s husband; Paula, the oldest; Peter, the second oldest; and Robert, Father Peter Baldacchino waves as he leaves the church after being but wide-ranging interview with the youngest. ordained a priest.

The Malta native, Newark priest and missionary founder of two churches and one school on the Turks and Caicos Islands is a man who laughs easily — including at himself. He often repeats St. Teresa of Avila’s adage “Un santo triste es un triste santo,” which roughly trans- lated means, “A saint who is sad is a sad saint.” No surprise, then, at the motto he chose for his episcopacy: “Ubi Dominus ibidem letitia” — “Where God is, there is joy.” A short time with Miami’s 10th auxiliary bishop also reveals a man Msgr.

Año: 2020 DOI: https://doi.org/10.51743/cpe.65 Juan Pablo II a los sacerdotes John Paul II to priests MIGUEL FERNANDO GARCÍA Universidad Eclesiástica San Dámaso RESUMEN: El autor desarrolla el artículo en forma de díptico: en primer lugar, se ocupa de la teología y la espiritualidad sacerdotal de Juan Pablo II, vista a lo largo de su itinerario magisterial característico; en un segundo momento, expone, a modo de síntesis, la pastoral sacerdotal que nos ofrece san Juan Pablo II. Salva la distancia entre la realidad ontoteológica y su desenvolvimiento moral a través de una exhortación apremiante a la santidad de vida en la caridad pastoral. PALABRAS CLAVE: sacerdocio, don, misterio, eucaristía, caridad pastoral ABSTRACT: The author develops this paper in the form of a diptych. Firstly, he deals with the theology and priestly spirituality of John Paul II, seen throughout his char- acteristic magisterial journey. In a second moment, the author exposes, by way of synthesis, the priestly ministry that Saint John Paul II offers us. This bridges the gap between ontotheological reality and its moral development through a compelling exhortation to sanctity of life in pastoral charity.

Desde el punto de vista histórico, se menciona la creación de algunas instituciones y organismos que han contribuido al desarrollo de una bioética católica; desde la perspectiva de los temas y contenidos, se propone que el aporte específico de la Iglesia Católica al desarrollo de la bioética comprende cuestiones de método, de epistemología y de fundamentación. En este contexto se mencionan algunos documentos del Magisterio eclesiástico que han contribuido a iluminar y enriquecer la reflexión bioética sobre algunos temas concretos. Central a este aporte de la Iglesia es la comprensión de la persona y su dignidad, especialmente a partir del Concilio Vaticano II, que desarrolla un “personalismo critológico”. Particularmente relevante ha sido, en este mismo sentido, la contribución de Juan Pablo II a través de sus escritos publicados antes y durante su Pontificado. palabras clave: bioética; personalismo; Iglesia Católica; personalismo cristológico.
