Deacons are obliged to give priority to the
spiritual life and live diaconia with generosity. They should
integrate their family obligations, professional life and
ministerial responsibilities so as to grow in their commitment to
the person and mission of Christ, the Servant. Clerics have a
special obligation to seek holiness in their lives because they are
consecrated to God by the title in the reception of orders as
dispensers of God's mysteries in the service of God's people.
