The authors examine a range of issues from sociological and demographic examinations to explorations of the theological basis for lay ministry, from biblical foundations to magisterial teaching. It is an essential resource for anyone interested in the development of ecclesial lay ministry. No. 5-285, 216 pp. Called and Gifted for the Third Millennium In these reflections, published on the fifteenth anniversary of Called and Gifted, the bishops re-examine and update the four "calls" that impel the laity-the calls to holiness, to community, to mission and ministry, and to Christian maturity-in light of Church teaching and pastoral practice-and the changing conditions in the world. English: No. 5-002, 32 pp. Spanish: No. 5-003, 32 pp.
