The present reflection pretends to approach on the complex problematic relationship between the clergy and the laity in the church. This distinction built on long temporality resulted, in many cases, a dichotomy between Church leaders and the entire Christian people. Following ancient model of power that dichotomies natural and divine way, the holders of sacredness and superiority to not sacred and powerless, clericalism was being built and still persists in the current ecclesial practices. The present reflection raises the problem and exposes the process of building the dichotomy and brings out a typology of equivocal readings on the issue and concludes with modes of indications of overcoming it. . Still clergy and laity distinct on structures in the ecclesial organization, it can and must be based on service and not in power. The urgent reform of the Church convened by Pope Francisco will require renovation both in attitudes as well as in the pastoral and canonical practices in governing the ministerial practice in the Church. The ecclesial life organized in small communities is the possibility of new forms of ministerial experience that surpass the dichotomies and only legitimates service.
