The Inspiration of the Divine Calling of all People 17 of the Church’s self-understanding in the post-conciliar era. The topic is highly current. In Chapter V, individual topics are taken up once more and with them, a glimpse into the future is undertaken. In exemplary fashion, possible perspectives for a renewed perception of the Church’s self-understanding are presented. With the keywords of “participation”, “unity in diversity”, and “the dialogue as the carrying out of life”, concrete topical examples are described in which Pallottine inspirations can and should have an impact. The Attatchment contains observations and refl ections on the infl uence of Ignatius of Loyola on Vincent Pallotti, written by Bruno Bayer in German and translated by Erik Riechers into English. The special focus is on the role of the spiritual exercises of Ignatius in Pallotti´s spirituality. There are few comprehensive studies on Pallotti. This is an attempt to theologically refl ect on his life and work. As the study has been made in German originally it is understandable that a greater part of the footnotes are in this context.
