Summary/Abstract: The sacramental priesthood is a special participation in the mission of Christ. Ordained priests - bishops and priests, serve in the Church in persona Christi Capitis. This particular mission has a threefold character: prophetic, priestly and royal. The service of the sacramental priesthood is also expressed in acting in persona Ecclesiae. In fulfilling their mission, priests depend on Christ, the Church and their own bishop, and the place of their ordinary ministry is the particular Church and the parishes that make it up. This article outlines the essence of priesthood at the priesthood level and the relational nature of priesthood ministry to Christ, the Church and the diocesan bishop.
