Paragraph 4. CHRIST’S FAITHFUL – HIERARCHY, LAITY, CONSECRATED LIFE

From The Catechism of the Catholic Church

893
The bishop is “the steward of the grace of the supreme
priesthood,”⁴²³ especially in the Eucharist which he offers
personally or whose offering he assures through the priests, his co-workers.
the Eucharist is the center of the life of the particular Church. the bishop
and priests sanctify the Church by their prayer and work, by their ministry of
the word and of the sacraments. They sanctify her by their example, “not
as domineering over those in your charge but being examples to the
flock.”⁴²⁴ Thus, “together with the flock entrusted to them,
they may attain to eternal life.”⁴²⁵
