Pope endorses Argentine bishops’ document on Amoris Laetitia
12/09/2016 18:43
(Vatican Radio) Pope Francis has written a letter to the bishops of
the Buenos Aires region of Argentina, praising them for their document
which spells out ways in which priests should apply the teachings of his
apostolic exhortation ‘
Amoris Laetitia’.
The Pope was responding to a document by the bishops entitled ‘Basic criteria for the application of chapter 8 of ‘Amoris Laetitia’
which details ways of ‘accompanying, discerning and integrating
weakness’ for Catholics living in irregular family situations. That
chapter focuses on the need to support and integrate divorcees [adulterers]
into the life of the Church, specifying that “in certain cases, this
can include the help of the sacraments”. In his letter the Pope
underlines the urgency of formation of priests for the practice of
discernment, stressing that this is central to the task of accompanying
families in difficulty. He calls for in-depth catechesis on the
exhortation which he says will “certainly help the growth, consolidation
and holiness of family life”.Expressing his appreciation for the
‘pastoral charity’ contained in the bishops’ document, Pope Francis
insists “there are no other interpretations” of the apostolic
exhortation which he wrote at the conclusion of the two synods on the
family in 2014 and 2015.
