Notes

Abstract:
Consulting the American Catholic Laity: A Decade of Dialogue marks a watershed for the Bishops' Committee on the Laity because it represents the highlights of numerous conferences and consultations with lay men and women on a variety of topics. When the Laity Secretariat was established in 1977, Archbishop Edward McCarthy, then chairman of the Bishops' Committee on the Laity, identified communication between bishops and laity as a major priority for the committee and its secretariat. This book concludes that the laity have been called to adulthood, holiness, ministry, and community. Their continuing answer is crucial to the Church. ( English )
