Christ's Faithful: Hierarchy, Laity, and Consecrated Life (Catechism Series Part 17) Auspice Maria Ep 47

Auspice Maria with Bishop James Ruggieri

How do bishops, priests, deacons, religious, and lay people all fit together in the Catholic Church? Bishop Ruggieri answers that question in this week's episode. He explains the Catechism's teachings on each role in detail. "Each vocation is distinct, but none, importantly, is isolated. Each is necessary. Each is ordered toward holiness and mission." - Bishop Ruggieri. You can read the full transcript on our website at https://portlanddiocese.org/news/auspice-maria-ep-47
