Conclusion

» The call of the teacher is preeminent in the fulfillment of their ministry in the Church, i.e., their commitment to be clear regarding the truth of God, and their understanding of Jesus Christ and his Kingdom. » Only the Lord’s own strength and call can ensure a fruitful teaching ministry as we break the Bread of Life for the nourishment of the Church.
