Consecrated religious life in the Church, according to the Magisterium

Abstract

This article purports to present some reflections on the thought of the Magisterium with respect to the consecrated religious life in the Church. A theme that may be very common to this magazine. For the Magisterium it is a subject of Paramount importance. Especially after the II Vatican Council, it was approached in a relevant way for the significant contribution of religious life devoted to the Church. The text, by the complexity of the subject cannot address in detail each of the documents. It only analyses what they all have in common, i.e., the consecrated religious life, by its nature, is inserted into the Church, helping with its presence and mission for the good of the people of God.
