The Eucharistic wonder what to do when our pastor is wary of charismatic prayer gatherings?

is surely a blessing when the pastor of a parish a warm welcome and comes Renewal to turn the occasion. All the better if priests very involved in the renewal which serve a variety of ways, especially in the ministries of education and support sacramental.

However, it should give thanks to the Lord if the priest left the support group do its work freely shepherds. The priest has a duty to ensure and encourage the prayer group in his parish, but it also has a duty to let him operate on her own mission which is to be a school of prayer for the laity and the laity .

This is balance. The priests should support the Renewal without dominating. They should protect, serve a guardian if necessary (like the stick which is attaches a tomato plant growing), but without the mother. They should help to stand on its own feet and continue its flight in the direction of the support group.

But the original question does not refer to the priests who take out their place or are taking too much space, but to those who are hostile to the Renewal (after 40 years, there still! ). It's a cross to bear. The priest in question may be misinformed or has perhaps already been burned by some past abuse.

What to do? The love, pray for him, never speak ill of him, render service, to be his best parishioners. Ask all the permissions and do all the reports you need. Do not insist that he come to meetings regularly, but when the invite is suitable: a special celebration, an opportunity to confess or to celebrate the Eucharist. It is appropriate when there is a prayer with laying on of hands and a priest is present, the invite to be part of a team (even if not used, even if not part of the Renewal, because it has the anointing Priestly and his prayer is very effective).

If you know of a priest is in hospital, why not commission a team of your prayer group to go visit him, bring him flowers and prayers and to offer pray over him (discreetly, do not scare him).

Despite your good will and effort, it is possible that the priest is cold. Be as positive as possible: to complain and criticize is rarely effective to gain the good graces of someone. Maybe he should then do as we did with our older children who do not behave according to our values: business as usual, keep praying, welcoming and loving. They should be in our hearts and trust in the Lord.
