Es ésta una pregunta que algunas personas nos hacen cuando nos llegan a conocer. Ciertamente, el fundador de los Misioneros del Sagrado Corazón no es santo en el sentido de que esté canonizado. Se están llevando con paciencia los trámites para que un día sea oficialmente reconocido como tal. Pero, por ahora, nos tenemos que contentar con creer que “santo” es todo persona que vive unida a Cristo, en “gracia de Dios” decían nuestros mayores, esté viva entre nosotros en el tiempo o muerta que es estar viva en la eternidad. San Pablo, en alguna de sus cartas, llama “santos” a los que siguen a Cristo viviendo unidos a Él: “Saludad… a todos los santos que están con ellos” (Rom 16,15). “Os saludan todos los santos, especialmente los de la casa del César” (Flp 4,21-22. Cfr. 1Co 16,15; 2Co 13,12).

Abuses in the Religious Life and the Path to Healing
As we explore the implications of Safeguarding more resources come to hand. Here is a worthwhile book to read entitled, Abuses in the Religious Life and the Path to Healing by Dom Dysmas de Lassus. Sexual abuse is not the only mistreatment practiced in the Church. There is also spiritual abuse. Brother Dysmas, Carthusian master, patron of the hermits, comes out of his silence to denounce the unacceptable behavior of religious superiors and founders of communities. Rooted in the monastic tradition and the robust theology of religious life, Father presents elements that will assist everyone in evaluating the dangers of certain spiritual practices and methods of community government.

Pastoral Supervision
It may come as a surprise to many of you to hear that the process we call pastoral supervision, also sometimes referred to as reflective or ministry supervision finds its roots in the Gospels. Mark tells us that Jesus fires sent out his disciples and upon their return invited them to “come away to a lonely place and rest.’ (Mark: 6: 31). In this way Jesus provided the much-needed space for his disciples to reflect upon their experience and gain new insights and support for the task ahead.
