Pastors are in the ministry of shepherding the faithful in the name of Christ. Pastors receive this The Pope and bishops receive their pastoral office which they are to exercise with Christ the Good Shepherd as their model; they share this pastoral ministry with priests, to whom they give responsibility over a portion of the flock as pastors of parishes. We pray for our Pastor, Fr. Francisco Hernandez-gomez |
