By Giuseppe Frassinetti

Book Overview

The New Parish Priest's Practical Manual, written by Joseph Frassinetti and originally published in 1883, is a comprehensive guide for Catholic priests in their pastoral duties. While the book is primarily aimed at parish priests, it is also useful for other ecclesiastics, particularly confessors and preachers.The manual covers a wide range of topics, from the administration of the sacraments to the management of parish finances. It provides guidance on how to conduct Mass, hear confessions, and administer the last rites. It also includes advice on how to handle difficult situations, such as dealing with parishioners who are in financial distress or who are struggling with addiction.In addition to practical advice, the manual also contains theological reflections on the nature of the priesthood and the role of the priest in the community. Frassinetti emphasizes the importance of humility, compassion, and a deep spiritual life for priests, and encourages them to see their ministry as a vocation rather than a job.Overall, The New Parish Priest's Practical Manual is a valuable resource for Catholic priests, offering practical guidance and spiritual inspiration for their pastoral work.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
