dc.description.abstractIt is quite normal to hear from "Wazee" (the respectable elderly) a litany of complaints about the young generations. These are blamed for being taken up by modernity and to have left the traditions out there. Wise men and women in their turn keep blaming not only the youngsters, but also their elder brothers and sisters, who, after abandoning the blessed traditions have failed as well to embrace totally the modern culture. They are living in identity crisis. Globally, the society in Africa is undergoing an identity and model crisis. "Neither the teachers nor the parents nor the community are good models for the young people". Faced with these two types of crisis, one would wonder where to get the models for youth! This is why the goal of this Essay is to present the lifestyle of genuine priests as "a model" for youngsters. Priests have chosen to follow Christ "the way, the truth and the life". They are on the right track. Therefore, like St Paul, a true priest today can stand in the crowd and say: "Imitate me, then, just as I imitate Christ" (1Cor. 10: 33). What is there to imitate in priests? This Essay is telling us what!en_US
