Cardinal Robert Sarah, prefect emeritus of the Dicastery for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments, stressed that “the priesthood is unique” and warned that “no council, no synod” can “invent a female priesthood.”

Sarah stressed that “the Catholic faith professes that the sacrament of Holy Orders, instituted by Christ the Lord, is one; it is identical for the universal Church. For Jesus, there is no African, German, Amazonia, or European priesthood. The priesthood is unique, it is identical for the universal Church.”

For the Guinean prelate, “the priest is a man of God who is day and night in the presence of God to glorify Him, to adore Him. The priest is a man immolated in sacrifice to prolong the sacrifice of Christ for the salvation of the world.”
