Priest
Profiles
We derive our identity
ultimately from the love of the Father,
we turn our gaze to the Son, sent by the Father
as high
priest and good
shepherd. Through
the power of the Holy
Spirit, we are
united sacramentally to him in the ministerial
priesthood. Our priestly life and activity continue
the life and activity of Christ
himself. Here lies our identity, our true dignity,
the source of our joy, the very basis of our life.
