Pat,
I suggest folks watch a TEDx talk given by Peter Kennedy about St. Mary's in Exile, a church formed by former Catholics that is very inclusive of women, LGBT, homeless, people of no faith or other faiths.  The theme of the talk by Kennedy, a former Catholic priest, is "what you do is more important than what you believe."  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HkjQHXQ5rng&t=600s 

Another source of food for thought is a booklet by Fr. Eugene Stockton titled:  Reflections on Parish Reform. http://www.catholica.com.au/gc0/eds/pdf/ReflectionsOnParishReform.pdf

Neither one is a theological discourse, but both present ideas and viewpoints about how a community of faith can be organized differently than the current Roman Catholic parish.  I think Stockton still overly exalts the priesthood in his vision of how faith in community can be realized (the ordained priesthood "as a personal sacrament of the priestly people"), but it raises the question of a future for the "ordained priesthood".
