Canon
352
1. The
pastoral formation is to be adapted according to the
conditions
of place and time and to the aptitude of the students
whether
celibate or married and to the needs of the ministry for
which they
are preparing themselves. 2. Students are to be instructed especially in the
catechetical and homiletic arts, liturgical celebration, parish administration,
dialogue of evangelization with non-believers or non-Christians, or with the
less
fervent
Christian faithful, the social apostolate and the instruments of social
communication, not neglecting auxiliary disciplines such as psychology and
pastoral sociology. 3. Although
students
are preparing themselves for the ministry in their own
Church sui
iuris, they are to be formed in a truly universal spirit by which they are
prepared in spirit to respond in the service of souls everywhere in the world.
Therefore they are to be
thoroughly
instructed about the needs of the universal Church,
and
especially about the apostolate of ecumenism and evangelization.
