Contact Rosario Fernandes +1 (905) 858-0871 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ My husband always go for sunday mass. He stands at the backdoor along with other men of his type. Intially I used to pester him to be inside. He was getting bored. His logic:- I have been praying the same mass from 1964 when Pope Paul started it. Nothing has changed except the choir master. The hyms put you to sleep and so also the violin of our Mistri. The sermons are boring not prepared earlier but just spoken at the spur of the moment. The priest is a busy man and has no time. I used to be with the other pius women of the town who always said that the sermon was very good. Today I feel my husband is right. I hear the word of God on the TV specially the Miracle net and the God channel and when you hear the classical sermons which sends the grace of God down the spinal Cord these what you hear in the church is rubbish. I am open with my criticism. The reason I write not because I want to throw mud on the clergy but I want them to change themselves. I want them to sit down in their rooms and pray for the Holy Spirit to help them to preach the word of God instead of zooming in the night on expensive two wheelers and four wheelers. I want them to prepare the word of God from inspiration and not from ready reckoners. I want them to lead the lay people like us to Christ. I want them to form groups of lay people who will look after the down trodden. I want them to change the working of our charitable institutions. That the bishop house shoudl not trouble the poor lay people with constructions which are not required. The church will look after its people as far as jobs are concerned, as far as education is concerned, as far as loving neighbour is concerned. The church will work against divorce and abortion and family planing. The clergy will be instrumental in giving moral and spiritual support to its people. That they may become good shepherds and lead its sheep. Do you want anything more? To stop criticising the believers and embrace them and stop telling people not to watch Miracle net, God channel because the teachings are false. To help people to pray to God thefather and believe in him instead of telling people that if you pray to Mother Mary she will intercede for us and the saints will help us to go to heaven as they are closer to God.
