Fr. Michael Sweeney\, OP\, has developed a theology of the laity that addresses this theological misunderstanding. He has applied this theology of the laity both as co-founder of the St. Catherine of Siena Institute and as the co-founder of the Lay Mission Project of the Western Dominican Province. \nFr. Sweeney will speak to the suggestion of then-Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger that we ought to recognize a lay office in the Church in order to promote the full participation of the laity in the Church’s mission\, with a view to enabling a real collaboration between the laity and the hierarchy. \nFr. Sweeney also participated on a panel discussion on similar topics on the afternoon of November 15.
