LAITY’S MISSION IN THE LOCAL CHURCH
Doohan, Leonard
Harper & Row, 1986
144 pages

Doohan’s mission is to bridge “the frequent gap between church teaching and lay hopes,” which he does by telling the clergy stories of laity who are making a difference, and by providing a theological foundation for each aspect of lay life. He builds on his Lay-Centered Church (see below) by updating his analysis of the Catholic lay movement since Vatican II and examining four major components of lay life: work, family, social service and celebration. Historically based and visionary. An extensive bibliography is provided.
