The Christifideles Laici Award, presented in honor of Patrick F. Flores, is bestowed upon a Catholic couple who have demonstrated by participation in parish life, the personal and ministerial renewal called for by the papal exhortation, Christifideles Laici, calling the laity to the vocation of responsibility for the Church’s life springing from the gift and mission of their baptism. Archbishop Gustavo García-Siller, MSpS, himself chooses the recipient of the Christifideles Award.
