Apply the teaching of the catechism that man is a religious being who has a capacity for God
to yourself and others kinds of people you may serve as a priest. - CORRECT ANSWER-
✔✔God never ceases to draw man to himself; regardless of when/where in our life we forget
or overlook this amazing reality. As created by God, we are His beloved children. This gives
me the gratitude of knowing that I have worth and dignity as a being created through love.
Beyond myself, and in the service of others as a priest, this truth will help me to see all of my
parish with dignity, and that the desire for God is written into their very fabrication. It
inspires me to allow the Will of God to work through my ministry to bring His children into
His loving gaze. - Matthew Schilmoeller CCC 27

people, reason is universal in its impact and understanding. -Noah Contreras

expression to their quest for God in their religious beliefs and behavior: prayers, sacrifices
