	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Parish
		Parishes without fixed incomes are nevertheless benefices in a broad sense of the term, since they insure a living for their parish priests by gifts and offerings, either voluntary or payable on the occasion of certain acts of the curial ministry, according to rates approved by the bishop.
		The establishment of canonical parishes in these countries was not found possible, owing either to the devastation wrought in the so-called Reformation period or to the fact that, as new lands were slowly evangelized and settled, circumstances did not allow the establishment of the Church's parochial system as prescribed in her canon law.
		Priests belonging to religious orders, who are in charge of parishes, may be removed either by their superior or by the bishop, without either being constrained to give the reason for his action to the other.

	Zenit News Agency - The World Seen From Rome
		It is therefore of fundamental importance for the parish to have a priest as its pastor and the title of pastor is specifically reserved to the priest.
		The parish priest is obliged to collaborate with his Bishop and with the other priests of the diocese so as to ensure that the faithful who participate in the parochial community become aware that they are also members of the diocese and of the universal Church.
		It would therefore be senseless to consider the pastoral council as an organ replacing the parish priest in his government of the parish, or as one which, on the basis of a majority vote, materially constrains the parish priest in his direction of the parish.

	Instruction - The Priest, Pastor and Leader of the Parish Community
		A parish is a specific community of the christifideles, established on a stable basis within a particular Church, whose pastoral care is entrusted to a parish priest as its own shepherd under the authority of the diocesan bishop.
		Another basic element for the idea of parish is that of the cura pastoralis or cura animarum which is proper to the office of parish priest and principally expressed by preaching the Word of God, administering the sacraments, and in the pastoral government of the community.
		The concept of parish priest is redolent of great theological significance while permitting a Bishop to establish other forms of the cura animarum in accordance with the norms of law.

	TO PARISH PRIESTS
		In this way, in fact, the efficacy of the priest's presence and action in the world may be wiped out; that very efficacy which we hoped to obtain when we imprudently reacted to the separation of the priest from the rest of society.
		As it may also expose good priests, young ones particularly, to the influences of the most questionable and dangerous movements of thought fashionable in the world, it may therefore make them vulnerable from the outside and expose them to supine acceptance of other people's ideas at their face value.
		And likewise you, old priests or priests holding some responsible office, try to understand your confrères, those whose duty it is to work for you, young priests particularly.

	"The Role of the Laity" Peter Steinfels (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Some are general parish ministers whose work, with the exception of administering the sacraments, covers almost the full range of responsibilities traditionally carried out by priests.
		Obviously, one must distinguish between the parish Director of Religious Education and the CEO of a sprawling health-care system; between a liturgist and a Catholic Charities lawyer working with the homeless or the undocumented, between a diocesan editor and the chair of a theology department.
		When it became obvious, with the suddenly diminished numbers of priests and nuns, that the latter was the case, that optimism sometimes turned into a naivete about carrying out their missions without benefit of the intense, prolonged, and common formation that had marked priestly or convent life.

	Encouraging our Priests - Catholic Online
		Just do a little math by dividing how many parishioners per priest in your parish to see how many people they have to serve to get an idea of the enormity of their job and with little support from most of the parish.
