There exists among all the Christian faithful a true equality with regard to dignity and the activity whereby all cooperate in the building up of the Body of Christ in accord with each one's own condition and function. The very differences which the Lord has willed to put between the members of his body service its unity and mission. For in the Church there is diversity of ministry but unity of mission. (Catechism of the Catholic Church, 872-873)
