Let the priests comment on this one first b4 we the Xians do. We have wives beside us & still want to make decisions for others?
There r alot of married men & women who can do God’s work in a satisfactory ma

Time to become a priest is a whisker of a cat away. I think the Pope is being real in this case. Even Paul the Apostle said ‘only if you can, you can forgo marriage to serve the Lord’. With so many stories of child molestation, pregnancies and other sexual immoral stories involving catholic priests the only remedy is to allow men of God to have a wife while serving the priesthood.

Now as Catechist are part of the ordinary laity but doing the work of priest in the priest’s absence, the parish catechist takes on the role of being the main teacher of the faith in that parish.
