HOW TO REACT TO MEET THE FALLS OF A PRIEST

Cara Week,
afford to make these thoughts aloud, who willingly submit to the opinion of others.
If a man falls to the ground, neighbors, passers-by damage done to help him get up, ask him if you got hurt, and it remains crippled, phone ambulance because he reached an emergency room or hospital.
This gesture expresses the sense of brotherhood and charity, and it is wonderful. People do not evaluate as extraordinary, but normal. Otherwise we are ashamed to call ourselves men.
If a leaf falls to the ground tree nobody cares, but if a tower falls down all the people he is deeply saddened that so is being done to rebuild it, even if it takes a lot of sacrifice.
If a man betrays or abandons his wife is sad, but not too much because today is almost normal to happen. So much so that Faris has also legalized divorce.
But if a priest falls to the ground, which is still a man and as such subject to err, it seems that landslide world.
You always have to have two weights and two measures: a permissive and a condemnatory.
For someone who has generously promised and pledged to spend all his energy to fly high if you take some "dizzy" and falls to the ground in some possible February 30th of this world there is only so much with the absolute condemnation of guillotine.
Of course, if someone is a priest no one has the duty to tell him that, in falling, was good, but if you ever curargli to the wounds that have torn apart. Nobody has the right to condemn and pesticciarlo, which can only do those who are "without sin." But that only Christ can do, especially since he came on earth not to condemn but to forgive. " Why
a priest, always ready to forgive If you recognize "off road", has no right to be forgiven if he, too, a few corners of life, gets a crush? Not he is a man who deserves mercy?
Some Pharisees in the church we are on the stomach, but they also have the same effect as if they are outside.
to speak and write in the papers of some "slip" of a priest who seems to feel a great satisfaction. It is a way "noble and cunning" as many times to justify their "drifting" in order to feel at peace.
All clothing can and must be washed, but the habit, if it gets dirty, has to be thrown into the Arno. Call it justice, if you can!
Why the pants and skirts you can wash and iron so that they can wear again and make a good impression, and the habit has to be thrown on the pyre?



Dear Nani Nani Dido, fall because the priests are men, which means, first, that their ranks are people with psychological difficulties in equal proportion in the general population.
about their morality, you can not do is allow God to opinion, but at least from the human point of view we can put some stop. Grace can not be an alternate to the nature and the natural level, there are men who have serious weaknesses that lead to very serious errors at times. Before error certainly a part of a priest (mainly?) public opinion breaks loose, perhaps, as you note, not only to help the sinner, but to point the finger at others and divert attention from their sin.
seems to me that in his letter is well-told attitude "condemnatory", but it quoted another who has to do with permissiveness. I believe that in many cases you want to write a sentence "exemplary" after years of permissiveness towards serious scandals by priests, as if the original sentence could retroactively cancel a series of omissions.
Jesus said explicitly that it is dangerous to the scandal within the communion of the Church. It is true that sometimes ride the tabloid media, but as a church we can not ignore the fact that certain behaviors because they generate a scandal to the detriment of children. Be permissive in the face of certain facts is not good either for those who suffer or for those performing them.
Mercy fruit is full and generates a radical change in people's perception of gravity when it comes to what made: sometimes the question is whether the church is equipped and ready to accept a priest who has committed a serious matter. There are places in which to undertake a journey of repair: there are communities in which we work to return a lost dignity in the ministry, but sometimes it seems that local churches are not aware of or oscillate between those rigor and permissiveness, instead of worrying about the first signs of those who bring back on track deviates from the path.
Dear Nani, I love to listen to criticism, even of those who see the outside: I do not think that they are always true, I am convinced that the gospel has an intrinsic radical, "but I say" we rarely hear that all accused ' outside. But the attention we place it within us, to ask what happens and we're doing, how we exercise vigilance and fraternal correction, how to safeguard the sinner and the little that has been the scandal. "Blessed are you when ... utter all kinds of evil against you because of me." The problem is not when they say bad, but unfortunately when they do not lie.

SCANDALS MAY ALSO SERVE AGAIN

Dear Editor, Corriere della
the evening of July 18 has come out with a full-page title: "Fraud in the care of the sick. Monsignor arrested "and subtitled" The bishop lived in a house with sauna and original paintings. "
John XXIII Foundation, of which Don Luberto was president, was created to treat patients suffering from chronic infectious diseases and psychological problems. Despite having 450 employees, 363 patients were abandoned in the inspection of Finance, without any kind of assistance. The Institute for several months did not pay employees, not pay taxes insurance, increased its deficit despite the Calabria region corresponded to € 195.00 per day for each hospital, the Foundation had assets of around € 100 million, and patients should contribute to their maintenance.
The survey of the Financial Police was that Don Luberto would have implemented a "real plundering" the resources of the "stealing" from the coffers of the Foundation about 5 million €.
The reporter of the Courier reported that he lived in a luxurious apartment of Cosenza, with every comfort.
The "looting" would have been used over the years, at the expense of sick leave in total abandonment.
This painful episode, and others, thankfully not often, obliged to ask a question: church ensure enough on welfare projects made his name by dioceses and religious congregations, to prevent or punish abuses? In Cosenza in Calabria, no one knew what was happening for years in the Institute John XXIII? Who as a church had the task of monitoring?
Bishop rightly and wisely called upon all the priests of the diocese to publicly deplore the incident, hold times of prayer and reparation, including practical to express solidarity with the inmates, to urge more efforts for the works of the church to be witness of charity. But the scandal remains. You could prevent it?
the late 60's and early 70's, after some serious scandals have occurred in institutions for children operated by religious (Celestini of Prato), the Congregation for Religious urged the Italian Bishops' Conference to set up in each diocese the Diocesan Commission for Assistance (CDA) in order to improve the quality of training institutions and supervising the operation to prevent malfunctions and abuses.
In some dioceses, the Commission was established with good results in many other was never made or was not working, with the establishment of the Italian Caritas then do not talk about it anymore.
But the Italian Caritas is responsible for promotion of charity and coordination: the "prevailing pedagogical function," and "presents itself as the only tool available to officially recognized by the Italian Bishops to promote, coordinate and strengthen the charitable activities within the Italian ecclesial community" (Paul VI, Address the first meeting of the diocesan Caritas, September 1972). But not been given the tasks of supervision and control, probably because there were already the Diocesan Commission for assistance.
In general, the task of monitoring and control over what happens in the local church and on behalf of the church is certainly the bishop. But such tools have to do it? The Congregation of men had set out the assistance of diocesan commissions, then go into disuse, and the Italian Caritas has not been assigned this task. Consequence: the scandal of Cosenza.
Even the scandals may serve and help everyone involved to make a serious thought and have them appropriately.
is hard to think of reviving the Diocesan Commission for assistance, you should also provide adequate resources to operate. One possibility might be practical to give this task to Caritas, which has already culture, structure, right people and resources to carry it out.
The urgent thing is: you should not wait for another scandal to provide.

SUULA Latin Mass

page letter brief. 2


AFTER THAT HAS BEEN RE-AN OPPORTUNITY TO CELEBRATE IN LATIN

Welcoming the new, respecting the old

Cara Week,
many people ask me what will happen now. The Latin Mass has once again become a chat, can still be a sign that you are not off the religious soul of the people. Certainly some have read the document from the Pope presented the question: the future of newspaper went like hot cakes. The liturgy is a delicate thing, like a robe of precious embroidery. Two extremes should be avoided: a liturgical cold and just outside, where he performs a ritual that you wait until the end, and a liturgy move, invaded by words and gestures additional equate participation with the confusion that is dominated by the arbitrary character of some of the celebrant and / or assembly . Where then is the crux of the matter? The liturgy is the mystery of Jesus' life that we receive from the church. It is a living gift, a presence in action through words and gestures beautiful and precious, neither are the words to change our own accord, or gestures can become sloppy.
What happens, therefore, now that the Pope makes clear, under certain conditions, the use of the rite with which I personally have celebrated Mass in first years of priesthood? I can not imagine. Some people are confused and uncertain, others are shocked as a return to the past, others take a sigh of relief or satisfaction. I think that now would definitely set the time of the excommunication launched from below.
In the years immediately followed by the council, and then for decades until very recently, some have committed their energies in a struggle comparable to the seventh century and eighth against images, as in those ancient times daring and ferocious, they are books were burned and disowned habits and behaviors full of dignity is lost time to laugh and to mortify people who have felt rejected by the mere desire to pray and sing as the church itself had brought up since childhood. The thrill of novelty
'68 has lapped the temple and has eroded the walls, we have participated in many, working with antique dealers and craftsmen for the hasty demolition of church altars and sale of precious objects, sometimes cabinets Plastics have replaced the fine woods of vestries.
And yet at the same time, from many parts of the new liturgical rite has made its way in a manner noble and intense from the deep undertaking, which has collected and renewed witness to the tradition: new songs, new pages of the Bible, new renewed awareness to the community. There, where the liturgy came from the council has blossomed into a beauty made, there where communities have expressed the intensity of faith, you will find it difficult to accept other brothers who wish to pray with a style and a language so dear to so many generations of Christians for centuries. As the wise scribe of the Gospel we learn to draw from the great treasure of things new and old church.
