Canon Law and the Sacraments

This course will focus on the canonical norms governing the sacraments in the Code of Canon Law of 1983. It will
incorporate the parts of the Code of Canons of the Eastern Churches about which it is necessary that Latin pastoral
ministers be aware. The primary goal of the course will be to teach students how to read and understand the laws of the Catholic Church and how they apply to the usual celebration of the sacraments in the North American context.
