This "instruction," addressed to all Parish Priests and their brother collaborators involved in the "cura animarum," is being relayed to them through the kind offices of their Bishops. The document must be seen in the context of a deep reflection and study, which has been ongoing for a number of years on this topic. With the publication of the Directories on the ministry and life of Priests and that of the Permanent Deacons, along with that of the Interdicastrial Instruction, Ecclesiae de mysterio, and the Circular Letter, The Priest and the Third Christian Millennium, Teacher of the Word, Minister of the Sacraments and leader of the Community, we find the resonance of the documents of the Second Vatican Council, especially Lumen Gentium, Presbyterorum Ordinis, the Catechism of the Catholic Church, and the Code of the Canon Law, in an uninterrupted expression of the Magisterium.
