Glossary

Pastoral Care
1)     The Pastoral care of parishioners is a duty laid on the clergy at their ordination and reaffirmed when they are appointed to a parish. It is often shared with the laity of the congregations and seen as an extension of the local bishop’s ‘cure’ or care of that parish which he entrusts to the parish priest.
