Following the book by G. Greshake, “Being a priest today”, they have worked on the theological significance of the ministry as a representation of Christ and representation of the Church, and various current problems of ecclesiastical ministry. They have had the opportunity to accompany and analyze the homiletic exercise of two of the three deacons aspiring to the presbyterate in the Eucharist of each day.
All this has taken place in a climate of fraternity and coexistence in which there has also been a prolonged time of adoration of the Blessed Sacrament and the visit to the Abbey of Sacromonte, with strong Claretian resonances, among other things.
