Pope Gives Neocatechumenal Way Final Statutes

(13 June 08 - RV)
The Vatican’s Council for the Laity today officially handed over the definitive Statutes of the Neocatechumenal Way to founder Kiko Arguello.
The Statutes approved by Pope Benedict XVI are the result of 5 years of debate and reflection involving 5 Vatican dicasteries and members of the Charism.
Giuseppe Gennarini is an itinerant catechesist with the Way in the United States.
He says that the statues are important in underlining that the charism is an instrument of the church and not separate to it.
