\"\"\u2018Priests Today\u2019, is the title of an afternoon that seeks to respond, above all through testimonies and the language of the arts, <\/strong>to the real challenges faced by priests in the Church and society. The event will take place on 9 June 2010, in the Paul IV Hall in the Vatican, as part of the Year for Priests. Priests from more over 70 nations, worldwide, are expected to attend.<\/p>\n

Sponsors of the event: The priests of the Focolare Movement and Schoenstatt Movement<\/strong> in collaboration with the ICCRS (International Catholic Charismatic Renewal<\/strong> in the Spirit)<\/strong> and other ecclesial church associations.<\/p>\n

The programme will describe in trhee phases the identity of the priest today: <\/strong>Man of God \u2013 brothers together \u2013 prophets of a new world. Each section will be introduced by a thought from Benedict XVI (on video). In the concluding section, some thoughts of Chiara Lubich, founder of the Focolare Movement, and of Fr. Josef Kentenich, founder of Schoenstatt, will be presented.<\/p>\n

Witnesses <\/strong>\u2013 Amongst the protagonists: a priest from Ireland on being faithful to God\u2019s call; the survivors of an attack on the Junior Seminary of Buta in Burundi; and from Germany a priest who overcame a drink problem with the help of the community.

Cardinal Claudio Hummes, Prefect of the Congregation of the Clergy<\/strong>, will preside at the Vespers that will conclude the evening. Cardinal Francisco Javier Errazuriz, Archbishop of Santiago in Cile, ex-President of CELAM, will give a theological talk.<\/p>\n
