Over a two–year period, a Boston College faculty seminar explored the history, theology, and practice of the ordained priesthood, producing a document, “To Serve the People of God: Renewing the Conversation on Priesthood and Ministry,” which was shared with the Vatican and distributed to bishops’ conferences throughout the world.


Priestly Ministry and the People of God gathers both the original document and a selection of responses from the 2020 conference, attended by bishops, cardinals, seminary rectors, theologians, and lay leaders. Those concerned with the life of the Catholic Church and the future of the priesthood will find this indispensable reading.


“A brilliant, practical, theological examination of the Catholic priesthood.” —Kathleen A. Cahalan, Saint John’s School of Theology and Seminary
