IN BRIEF
1591 The whole Church is a
priestly people. Through Baptism all the faithful share in the priesthood of
Christ. This participation is called the “common priesthood of the
faithful.” Based on this common priesthood and ordered to its service,
there exists another participation in the mission of Christ: the ministry
conferred by the sacrament of Holy Orders, where the task is to serve in the
name and in the person of Christ the Head in the midst of the community.
