The Holy Father in his Encyclical Letter 'Sacerdotalis caelibatus' (n. 16) found an 'opportunity for setting forth anew and in a way more suited to the men of our time the fundamental reasons for sacred celibacy'. At the same time he was concerned that those who decided to become priest be suitably trained in this matter and therefore, His Holiness willed that 'apposite instructions be drawn up with the help of truly qualified men treating with all necessary detail the theme of chastity. They should be sent out as soon as possible to provided those who, within the Church, have the great responsibility of preparing future priests, with timely and competent assistance' (n. 61).
