Fr. Raniero Cantalamessa, OFM Cap, preacher to the papal household for over forty years, graciously accepted Pope Francis's invitation to lead a six-day retreat for the bishops of the United States in January 2019.Shepherds and Fishermencontains the reflections and meditations that guided this gathering, presented in an accessible format for groups and individuals seeking spiritual and ministerial inspiration.
Shepherds and Fishermenlifts up the words of Mark 3:14: ';He appointed twelve . . . that they might be with him and he might send them forth to preach.' Reflections and meditations offered inlectio divina, homilies, and liturgies focus on what it means to ';be with Jesus' while also ';going forth to preach.' Retreatants will reflect upon the ways their ministry is dependent upon both personal sanctification and pastoral activity.
The twenty-six scripturally based and culturally relevant meditations makeShepherds and Fishermenan ideal companion for a self-directed retreat or a prolonged spiritual exercise. As Jesus's call to be shepherds of sheep and fishers of men is addressed to every baptized person, the wisdom shared in this book will be treasured by bishops, priests, deacons, religious, candidates, and seminarians, as well as laity who wish to deepen their spiritual lives.
