Pastoral Council

Monday, November 26th, 2012

Sometimes he is inevitable everything what can happen within a pastoral service in the parish. I want to narrate what it happened to me, so that it is clear that nobody can use negative attitudes within a pastoral service; because it is like expelling to the members that are being in a service disinterested. My pastoral service in the parish consisted of two functions and I am going to narrate them in sequence because an event took the following one. As he would narrate previously, I stayed like director of the choir of the charismatic group of oration of our parish and as member of the Pastoral Council. In the Pastoral Council ramos seven people with the parish priest at the top. Seven people which, three were ladies and four men. One of the ladies was the act secretary for each meeting and its name is Gabriela, and is the person who reason that moved away to me definitively of the parish, but not of the Church. Of this lady already they had spoken to me before, but I did not want to believe nothing than they said to me, because at the outset I did not realize its behavior and I was discovering little by little it.

I have always said that we do not have to pay attention to the person who is in the service in the parish, but to see the service that is doing, to be able to evaluate its work; but in this opportunity I believe that the exception exists, because although it is certain that the persistence and dedication to its pastoral service cannot be cleared him, we cannot stop mentioning the negative in this person. A first detail that I discovered, and del that already they had spoken to me, are that to Mrs. Gabriela it liked to be made feel like the victim.
