Kasprzak, Artur Antoni2025-09-242025-09-242018Teologia w Polsce, 2018, Tom 12, Nr 1, s. 109-127.2956-63551732-4572https://theo-logos.pl/handle/123456789/36497This study proposes an analysis of the genesis of the term ‘co-responsibility’ in French pastoral care. The dynamics and extent of the realization of this expression in all French ecclesial circles is related to the subject of the plenary session of the French Episcopate of 1973: All responsible in the Church? The presbyteral ministry in the whole ‘ministerial’ Church. Our search here for the first use of the expression ‘co-responsibility’ in the reflection of the French bishops must be linked to the period of preparation of this assembly. The analysis of this article is then addressed to the period between December 1972 and September 1973. It is in this period when theologians, and among them Bp. R. Bouchex, proposed the thesis of the need for ‘co-responsibility’ of all the faithful in the mission of the Church, indicating this expression as one of the fundamental elements of the passage to the pastoral of the vision of the renewed Church, more open to the commitment of the layperson faithful in the Church.plCC-BY - Uznanie autorstwawspółodpowiedzialnośćposługa wiernych świeckichposługi święceńprezbiteratkryzys powołań kapłańskichkonferencje Episkopatu FrancjiFrançois FrétellièreRaymond Bouchexteologia laikatuteologia duszpasterskaduszpasterstwobiskupiświeccylaikatwierni świeccyteologia pastoralnaEpiskopat Francjianaliza historycznaanaliza teologicznateologiaanaliza historyczno-teologicznaco-responsibilityministry of the laypersonordained ministrypresbyteratecrisis of priestly vocationsFrench Episcopate’s conferencestheology of laitypastoral theologypastoral carebishopslaitylaypeoplelay faithfulFrench Episcopatehistorical analysistheological analysistheologyhistorical-theological analysisArticle
