October 1-3 I gave a series of presentations for Priest Study Days of the Diocese of Sacramento.  The theme of the Study Days was "Humanae Vitae  at 50:  Self-Giving Love for the Renewal of the World."  The presentations centered around the context, content, and reaction to the encyclical of Pope Paul VI and Humanae vitae's  connection to John Paul II's Apostolic Letter Mulieris dignitatem and Pope Francis's Apostolic Exhortation  Amoris laetitia.  A final presentation considered priestly self-gift in light of these documents and Pope Francis's pastoral approach.
