And it is far from what a Parish Leader is. Post #11 is the link to our diocesan newspaper in which our Bishop addresses and defines this. There just aren’t enough priests and it will be this way in the foreseeable future. We have a large percentage of priests who have been ordained 40, 50, 60 years, many working still past retirement age, and few seminarians to replace those who retire or die. And we have had a substantial # of deaths in the past few years, even of some younger priests.

I think you misunderstand me. I think the OP’s consternation is with what he perceives as the bureaucratic and high handed manner which this parish leader is acting. It is this bureaucratization and arrogance that the Holy Father condemns.

This is quite true. However with the switch in church locations and various Mass times, the people feel that after sixteen years there is no consistency.
Keep us free from all anxiety is part of the Catholic prayer.
However, when their own church causes them distress, what do they do?
