Prayer is the first task of the Bishop
The Pope said that the first task to be accomplished by a bishop is that of prayer. When the first Apostles heard the complaints of the Greek widows who were being neglected, “they joined together under the enlightenment of the Holy Spirit and invented the diaconate.” Peter explained that thus the Apostles could occupy themselves with “prayer and the proclamation of the Word.” Pope Francis continued saying “A Bishop who does not pray does not accomplish his duty, does not fulfill his vocation.”
Regarding those who collaborate in the ministry of the Bishop, the Holy Father asked that Bishops remain close to the diocesan presbyterate. “They should be able to find their Bishop the same day or, at the latest, the day after they look for him.”
