FULL CHURCH, EMPTY RECTORY : Training Lay Ministers for Parishes Without Priests
Geaney, Dennis
Fides/Claretian, 1980
134 pages

Geaney sees recent changes in the Roman Catholic Church, including reduced numbers of ordained ministers, not as indicators of impending death but as opportunities for new life. Laypeople on fire with the love of Christ are asking to take part in church ministry. He writes, “This book is about the channeling and refining of these energies through programs of theological education and pastoral training.” He addresses what the essential content of their training should be.
