Description
The publication of a new Code of Canon Law is an event of great importance in the Catholic Church. This revision of the Code has been in preparation since the Second Vatican Council twenty years ago, and its translation has been prepared by the Canon Law Societies in order to make a text available to pastors and ministers with all expedition. Canon Law touches on every aspect of the life of the Church, and affects pastoral work at all levels. The Code of Canon Law will be required reading for every ordained minister of the Church, and for all who are engaged in its pastoral work.
