Forgot to check the box.
I think the priest shows a genuine concern for the souls at his church. He should understand that people, who are used to comforts like air conditioning, have a difficult time adapting when these things aren’t available. I, for one, have a serious problem sleeping when the room temperature is above 70 degrees. He is right however, that we need to withdraw ourselves from such a pampered lifestyle.

Wait the priest is complaining about THAT? In Florida of all places?

From the OP, my 4th posting
Like I aid before, someone changed the direction of this thread from my intended purpose (to bring to the attention of the prior that he if things are not going according to his desires, that he should not insult the people calling them lazy, cowards, selfish…..) Here is an example, does this make you feel like you are dealing with a Catholic?:

Quote

You are ungrateful. It is because the ungrateful and lazy congregation full of do-nothings that forces the priest to ask in the first place. It's like this: nobody, or not enough people clean, maintains the chapel, or basically even takes care of the most basic of necessities, so that when the priest is forced to ask for help, you throw a tizzy. This behavior is only too typical of ungrateful people. You must be a democrat.

This thread was never about complaining about too much work

OP said: Someone came on here and changed the direction of the OP to a complaint about too much work, but I never complained about too much work. The parishioners in the Sanford chapel are by far the most generous people I have ever known, the work they’ve done in the last 15 years building that place is mind boggling for such a small congregation. The priory was 2000 square foot house, and recently they paid well over $600,000 to make a 2000 square foot addition to the priory. That’s a 4000 sq ft home (in Florida!) for 6 men! Theirs is no way you could call the parishioners anything but astronomical generous. The writer has contributed as much as the most generous.

The reason for my posting was to tell the prior that honey attracts more bees than vinegar. All I here every week in sermons is hateful insults to the parishioners. That is not going to get good results.

If you "let Sanford go", what is your alternative? Assuming all the complaints the OP has made are 100% accurate, none of them, nor all of them together are a sufficient reason to "let the parish go",

I never said I would leave I said “Should I give advice to the prior through CathInfo or just let it continue on its path?” It’s path is whatever comes of it.

Either the person complaining has only been a parishioner a very short time, maybe a few months, or else the person is ___________.

What the OP wrote above is a historical fact, that can be verified by observing the aerial photographs in Google through the years.

Too much honey makes one sick. Once sick, vinegar is needed to purge the innards to make one well. There has been too much honey, especially within the SSPX.
.
What you consider vinegar or hateful insults are in reality nothing more then pleadings from the priest trying to get those in his charge to save their souls.
.
Get over it. Go ahead and speak to the priest, but don't be saddened when he offers only more vinegar.

Thanks for the contribution Bishop Fellay.
