This post n º 209 of the Psalter is dedicated to Bernard and Peter.
Today I will talk about another friend of swagger. Peter who was cured and as such witness, if not leading, amazing stories in the New World. Fighting against the depth of human misery has lost only one of its two habits the dress, because the other, that of helping people is still in full use. He is now married with a beautiful lady Dominican. And they have a college graduate son and a daughter who is in it.
I think it started to practice in Brazil, in Mato Grosso in a remote location determined by a strange character, who became mayor, and attributed to him 20 or 30 deaths. There was a legend that could not be shot rather than a bridge that was in that town, but as the bridge is demolished by lightning or do not know what weather phenomenon, because these people lived fatally resigned to endure indefinitely. He counted Peter
another priest, his companion traveling with the individual in a bus crashed and overturned. They left the vehicle as they could. And this barbarian, who was known to shoot those who dared contradict him, asked: Hey dad
how did you leave the bus?
Through a window, he said.
No! For a window is not possible!
And recalling his fame continued:
Man, they do not know ... I think it was through a window, but I'm not sure ...
then snapped his interlocutor:
Father do you believe in God? Because I do not.
You see, you see, sometimes I have my doubts ...
Back home had all this to their peers in the presence of the bishop, which I think was a gringo, who questioned:
But Father, you have lost the opportunity of martyrdom!
Ah! yes? Take advantage of it because you know where he lives, he said.
same bishop was on a pastoral visit to the parish who ran Peter and some friends of his that was in a poor neighborhood where prostitution was widespread. And when the bishop had been driving back to his seat, a young local resident asked the favor of a ride, as they walked. The girl is the league felt their profession, but the bishop does not have seemed so obvious and he asked what he did.
I am an artist, father.
"Artist of what?
I'ma dancer, father. And work on that site. And if he wants to be happy and we will receive a discount.
The fact is that those girls grateful to the priests because they are often taken out of trouble, ever wanted to pay in kind. And they found it difficult to reject the offer without refuse her.
But why?! Because
religion forbids it.
But why religion is to ban something is so good?!
And they were right, because if a site so unfortunate not have moments of relaxation, can be a real hell. Later
was my friend in Panama, where it has interesting things. Since there are frequent tiny universes are real companies, which each have a harmonious and functional code when they make improvements, with the best intentions, becomes unbalanced and sinks do not say when the changes are motivated by the worst intentions! But that we can talk another day, and I have to be documented better.
The prestige of religion in these countries is huge and had Pedro who frequented the home of friends where they gathered to eat, chat and take the time pleasantly. Little Indians continually interrupted him with bottles of water for the blessing And that was a nuisance! Well-intentioned, but nuisance. And the brink of despair
even said I will bless the well, and to draw from there the holy water and see if I can eat often!
But best of all, or worst depending how you look, occurred in Guatemala during the last great earthquake.
Peter was responsible for Caritas and entrusted to render assistance to the victims of the disaster, which came into contact with a colonel.
Father, explain it to me all clearly. As if you were a moron.
First you need a lot of plaster.
No problem! We have large quarries ...
not realized that the man was clinical plaster to cure broken bones that caused such massive disasters. Total
Peter did a brilliant job in the relief effort and that Colonel wanted to be rewarded properly. Let's give
the Order of the Quetzal.
Peter did not know how to refuse without unleashing the wrath of the military grateful.
Is there a problem. We can not accept any personal reward. We have it banned. We do this for love of God ...
face so close a guard colonel showed the awkward, but hesitantly, and relented. In those days
Daniel, brother of Pedro and distinguished jurist, came to visit and dined with the colonel, who was full of praise and expressed how grateful they were all authorities and uncomfortable that it was not prepared to accept the award .
not want the Order of the Quetzal! There is no way to accept it. But I have told, that if someone bothered to tell me. That next morning found him in a ditch comiéndosele flies.
At this the lawyer for a short gives you a heart attack!
PEDRO THE excursions.
