Meeting with participants in the Plenary Assembly of the Dicastery for the Clergy, the Pope emphasised formation, vocation, and the importance of the permanent diaconate. Pope Francis met with participants in the Dicastery for the Clergy’s Plenary Assembly in the Vatican on Thursday morning, focusing on three main aspects: the ongoing formation of priests, the promotion of vocations, and the permanent diaconate.
He emphasized that this formation must be ongoing, especially in a constantly changing world like the one we live in today. "Weaving a strong network of fraternal relationships is a priority task of ongoing formation … it is essential that priests feel 'at home.' You, as a Dicastery, have already begun to weave a worldwide network: I urge you to do everything possible to ensure that this continues and bears fruit around the world."The decline in vocations to the priestly and consecrated life is"one of the great challenges for the People of God," the Pope observed.
