CAT 811 Sacraments and the Spiritual Life of the Pastoral Leader
Evangelization and catechesis are God’s initiatives and those called to service in the Church must operate from a relationship of communion with God if their work is to be fruitful. This course explores the need for pastoral leaders to live invested sacramental lives in order for their ministry to be aligned with God’s purposes and if they are to serve as authentic witnesses to the transformative power of sacramental grace. Topics to be explored include: the grace and missionary responsibility which is given through the sacraments; the unique call given to ministry leaders to carry out their ministry in sacramental union with Christ and the Church; and how the liturgy serves as a means of lifelong evangelization.
