新一期公教報談到臨恩開設殯儀服務,即有教友指責牟利。我真的摸不著頭腦:為何提供服務不應該收錢呢?負責的人不用吃飯嗎?
這真是一個好有趣的現象,似乎教區內對收錢一事,仍然好有忌諱,好多教友吃慣免費午餐(或者包埋早晚餐),食到有點不分對錯了。最近看到聖本篤堂的周年財政報告,大大個壁佈貼出來,原來去年該堂共蝕一百萬﹗一百萬﹗一個咁旺的堂區都蝕一百萬(不過,回頭一想,如果個個教友都打算吃免費餐,愈多人又愈蝕),一年教區蝕多少錢呢?點解咁多錢蝕呢?我們教友對於此等現象,是否都應該好好反省一下呢?

何止這樣 - 近年來堂區的'義工'說自己已經出力,所以不會出錢的了.
請人來培訓善會,各人不用夾錢,連食飯也免費......

Good gracious!
Times really have changed! In the old days we were taught that since the priests observe poverty vows, we must be generous with them and the parish. I remember the days when we new immigrants to HK from China in 1949 were so poor that we did not even have a chair at home to spare.
When the new parish wanted to build a church, the parish priest designate asked for contributions of 'chairs' to the place of meeting (an open space in the village), my parents took ALL the chairs in the house to the meeting place, leaving us squatting on the floor when we returned home from school.
Times have really changed. I'm not a bit surprised that the Diocese now treats 'demands for better treatment', 'demands for more freedom', 'demands for more money....' as something to be obtained as a matter of course.When the authority concerned could not PROVIDE any of these, the authority is WRONG. So today it is the government of HK/PRC; tomorrow it could well be the Catholic Church itself. Say for instance, when there are no more priests to celebrate mass...
