Résumé
--
The Vatican II council is considered to be an important stage in the recognition of the laity's mission in the Church and the world. The two great texts 'Lumen gentium' and 'Gaudium et spes' revived our reflection on the role laypeople merit through their baptism, even if the trend dates from long before that great event which marked the history of the Church in the 20th century. It opened the way for new initiatives, if at first in a rather disorderly way. The texts themselves, little read and studied at the beginning, continue to nourish the life of the Church and Christians today. This book highlights the interaction between the diverse initiatives of the laity, the work of theologians and the intercessions of popes through fifty years of history of the laity in France's Church: a Church that wavers between triumphalism and discretion which went through crises like that of May 1968 and is troubled by the fall in sacerdotal vocations a Church in which many signs of renewal also emerge. The Vatican II Council and the interpellations of Paul VI or Jean-Paul II elucidate, re-orient and stimulate the various forms of engagement open to children, teenagers and adults who, from Action catholique to new Communities - not forgetting the Scouts, spiritual movements, and their actions in associations or the life of the Church - manifest the Christian's response to Christ's call for us to be both 'the salt of the Earth' and the 'Light of the World'.
