Parish Councils: Pastoral and Finance: CLSA Pastoral Resource (2016) Paperback
by James A. Coriden (Author), Mark F. Fischer (Author)

Parish Councils: Pastoral and Finance examines consultation through parish councils in the wake of Vatican II, as a result of the Council’s emphasis on active participation of the laity in the life of the Church. It offers an in-depth vision of the origins and development of these councils, including the theological and canonical reasoning behind them, as well as a detailed look at their functions, operations, and relationships to other elements of the parish. Written by James A. Coriden and Mark F. Fischer, this book is ideal for members of parish councils, parish staff members, and pastors.

Marriage Studies V: Sources in Matrimonial Law (Marriage Studies) (2004)

Gerald T. Jorgensen (editor)

This volume, Marriage Studies V: Sources in Matrimonial Law, is a reprinting of the 2004 original with slight updates. It contains a collection of resources for the composition of law sections on eighteen different grounds used in the adjudication of marriage nullity cases. The content of each section concerning a particular ground follows the same sequence: 1) citations of pertinent canons; 2) Papal and/or conciliar teachings on marriage, with special emphasis on the aspects of marriage subsumed within the specific ground, and on papal allocutions to the Rota addressing the ground or issues within the ground; 3) passages from rotal jurisprudence; 4) types of proofs required for the specific ground; and 5) a final subsection entitled Related Issues, which provides lengthier references or presents specialized matters relative to the specific ground. This volume is meant to be user friendly and to be truly a resource for canonists actively involved in tribunal ministry.

Marriage Studies IV: Reflections in Canon Law and Theology (Marriage Studies) (1990)

John Alesandro (editor)

Number four in the Marriage Studies series
PREFACE
In the late 1980's, the CLSA's Committee on Marriage Research reflected and discussed the priorities of contemporary canonists in the area of research and writing on marriage. It was clear that efforts to further knowledge in this field should concentrate on both substance and process, on the sacramental reality of marriage itself and on the juridical procedures used to arrive at a morally certain judgment concerning the nullity of a marriage. The seven works in this edition will help to promote and broaden discussion of these areas of interest, particularly by fostering interchange between canonists..
