Reflecting on ourselves

Tonight, thanks to our dear Enza, we reflect on ourselves and we do this through a thought and a story that lead us to think much about what matters and what we can do for the Church:

The six words Important:
"you acknowledge that you made a mistake"

The five most important words: "You did a good job."
The four most important words: "What do you think?"
The three most important words: "If you could."
The two most important words: "Thank you so much."
The most important word: "We."
The least important word "I"
Help us, Lord, to bless: The work of our brothers ....
The effort of everyone involved .....
Joy who is in the serenity ....

The Death of the Parish

on the walls and the city appeared in the newspaper a strange funeral announcement: "With deep sorrow we announce the death of the parish of Santa Eufrosia. The funeral will take place Sunday at 11." On Sunday the church was crowded. In front of the altar was a coffin made of dark wood. The pastor gave a simple speech: "We are all here to greet the dead. I do not think that our parish can revive and rise again, but I would like you to spend all here, in front of the coffin, to take a last look to the deceased. After those who want to , may return to the front door for entry. "

The priest opened the chest. Everyone was wondering: "Who will ever be in? Who is really dead?" And they began to withdraw slowly. Everyone looked at the coffin and looked inside, then left the church, a quiet little 'confused. Why is everyone looking into the coffin, they saw in a mirror placed on the case and his own face.
"Lord, when we complain of our Church, help us to understand that the Church has the face of our face.
