                    [Summary] => There are priests who are not distinguished. They are competent, even talented, but they do not stand out as unusual or extraordinary, and they are not believed to have what are called leadership qualities. They are, however, zealous and dedicated. They devote themselves to the humbler, less spectacular ministries, like hearing confessions, or celebrating Mass for ordinary people. 


Such priests are the backbone of the Church. They probably will not get awards and marks of recognition, but (as Karl Rahner says) they are the ones who do most to promote the kingdom of God.
