Description
Summary:Focusing attention on the vision and message of St. Pope John Paul II, Sebastian makes a practical study of the application of the CCEO in the context of the Catholic Church in India. By making a voyage through the reception of the Eastern Code in the Catholic Church in India, its culture ad context, the author evaluates how far CCEO has been successful in its purpose, especially in the context of the Syo-Malabar and Syo-Malankara Churches sui iuris. The recognition and elevation of these two Churches to the Major Archiepiscopal status, the formation of the Synods of bishops and the higher tribunals within the Churches sui iuris, the promulgation of the of particular laws, etc., are among the visible signs of CCEO's reception in the said context. The erection of personal parishes by the local bishops of the Latin Church, for the pastoral care of the oriental faithful residing outside their proper territory, the increasing collaboration among the three Churches sui iuris in the field of the pastoral care and a combined study of the codes of canon law are also results of better reception of CCEO.
