Pastor's Initiative
Pastor's Initiative (German: Pfarrer-Initiative) is a dissident Roman Catholic group founded in Austria in 2006 by Helmut Schüller as its leader, initiated by an "Appeal to Disobedience", or "Call to Disobedience" (German: Aufruf zum Ungehorsam). Composed of priests with lay support, the group advocates ordination of women, married and non-celibate priesthood, allowing Holy Communion to remarried divorcees and non-Catholics.
