The Sanctifying Function of the Church » The Sacraments » Orders
Canon 1008. By divine institution, some of the Christian faithful are marked with an indelible character and constituted as sacred ministers by the sacrament of holy orders. They are thus consecrated and deputed so that, each according to his own grade, they may serve the People of God by a new and specific title.
[revised wording according to m.p. Omnium in mentem, 26.X.2009]

Sacramento ordinis ex divina institutione inter christifideles quidam, charactere indelebili quo signantur, constituuntur sacri ministri, qui nempe consecrantur et deputantur ut, pro suo quisque gradu, {in persona Christi Capitis munera docendi, sanctificandi et regendi adimplentes, Dei populum pascant} novo et peculiari titulo Dei populo inserviant. {Textus inter notas mutatus est ad textum qui sequitur per littera apostolica motu proprio Omnium in Mentem die XXVI mensis Octobris anno MMIX.}
