The Catechumenate and the Law: A Pastoral and Canonical Commentary
Everyone who works with
Christian initiation will encounter a predicament that only a knowledge of
canon law can resolve. This helpful book reviews the various aspects of
Christian initiation that are affected by the Church's many sources of canon
law, including the canons, the rite itself, and various documents from Vatican
II, and from the Bishops of the United States. Reading lists, legal texts, and
an index are included.
