How does the Catholic Church understand Luke 19:17, "Because you have been faithful in a very small matter, you shall have authority over ten cities."

Luke 19:17 occurs in the Parable of the Ten Minas (which has strong similarities to the Parable of the Talents). Jesus says > "His master replied, ‘Well done, good servant! Because you have been > faithful in a very small matter, you shall have authority over ten > cities.’" How does the Catholic Church understand this authority of the good servant - is it something that is happening now (as, for example, there are patron Saints of countries), or is this a reference to (the correlate of) cities in the resurrection, and so the good servants don't have this authority as of now?
