The Vatican will hold an international symposium to discuss the theology of the relationship between Catholic priests and the laity.
The conference, “For a Fundamental Theology of the Priesthood,” will take place 17 to 19 February in the Vatican’s Paul VI Hall. The symposium was first announced in April 2021.
Cardinal Marc Ouellet, prefect of the Congregation for Bishops, has organized the meeting together with the France-based Research and Anthropology Center for Vocations.
“The initiative proposes to reawaken enthusiasm for our faith in the gift of God and to give new zeal to the promotion of vocations,” organizers said.
