A key difference between a pastor and a priest in the Catholic Church is their roles and responsibilities. A pastor is typically in charge of a specific parish or congregation, overseeing its spiritual and administrative needs.

According to Canon Law, everyone who resides in the physical boundaries of parish is a Catholic belonging to that parish. However, one must be registered in the parish to get certain benefits. For instance, your parish priest must attend to your spiritual needs, if you are registered parishioner. He must baptize your children, hear your confession, attend to you when you are sick with the sacraments, and bury you when you die. Oh, and of course, you get envelopes and the monthly diocesan newspaper!
