I arrive at school by mid-afternoon. In the community hall, a Roman collar on a chair. On another, a monk slumped. He reads his newspaper the right leg placed on the arm of the chair, unbuttoned cassock.
Brother Director arrived around 16:00. It is unclear what to say. The minutes were an eternity to their account. I offer myself to carry luggage. It melts a little atmosphere. Meet at 17:00 for spiritual reading.
expected. Two are missing. Expected. We say nothings that pierce the silence of Gruyere. Prayer. Welcome from the Director. Everyone is invited to talk about his holiday. It is short and vague. Isle La Motte for most. Brother Roch, who was visiting his family, Brother Arcade in St-Michel with his friend Brother Robert.
After supper, first walk on the riverfront. Water, the great nonchalance that abolishes the asperities. Picture of the year, alternating languor of time and surface roughness of events and craft to learn.
Second Table: A hard job
The catechism
Talking about God to thirty children of ten years with the ants biting their buttocks and attention! We still can not introduce them into the walls of the Beatissima . They know their catechism, that is what we (parents, school principal, the parish) expected of them and me. The vicar comes every two days for the check. Then line up for recitation at school St-Alexandre. But they are thirty-five, not ten. It takes all wrong. The attention wanders. So I yell, I punished. Yahweh with his people as surly. Just
dictation. It is dissipated as little devils. I can not wait. I slap. Next time, "said the manager, he will send them to me, I have a good" jumper "is commonly called the" banana ". Why? No idea. It was common to use it, and the term and the belt.
Grab a tip when you're teaching a loss of balance! Even the Trinity can not be helped, at least in the short term. I repeated. I lose the pedals, I snap. Brother Anatole supports me. His support is daily and comforting. At Christmas, I agree with teaching the "fair". It is the patience of the framework is the strength of the teaching of Bishop Ross Brothers and not the famous master of pedagogy we have barely scratched the Scholasticate.
Table Three: Sowing the seeds of cement
One Thursday morning in May. It's cold. The whole school is in procession, boys
and daughters, brothers and sisters. We sing the litanies. Thursday is the Rogation . The procession up the street until Hector Sherbrooke passes the Canada Cement and down on George V. Sancte Clememti! For claims incantations of this strange procession, everybody responds: Ora pro nobis! the tall chimneys of the Canada Cement respond by throwing, like a censer, a gray puffs of dust that extends to the homes and people's shroud of death.
Sancte Victori , children do not understand , Ora pro nobis ! nothing was said.
Sancte Hector just they follow the procession Ora pro nobis ! In
ranks eighth. Whatever. Sancta Anna , It is the police! Ora pro nobis!
Sancte Leo! we have sung Santa Klaus! the ora pro nobis would have followed without bron
expensive and produce no more effect either on the sidewalks of the Canada Cement nor in the faith of these young faithful robots.
This image haunts me: robots Catholic and Muslim prayer wheels. Sancte Muhammad! Ora pro nobis! Agrarian rites, seed sown on rocky ground with a cement city.
I take note of this grotesque parade, defies common sense. I
dares talk about it. I am just a little new to the parish.
And the next day, as I requested, I see students who are carriers of the Miraculous Medal or his substitute, the scapular three fabrics of different colors, easier to wash. It runs slavishly, without realizing the enormity of the process. Rows of prisoners in a concentration camp. Peddlers of junk. Ah! If Jesus had been there, we would probably all driven out of the temple.
And any evangelical simplicity, I'm on the balcony of the emergency exit on the third floor. Children play in the yard. I am told that Gilles Blanchet fought. I'm coming.
- What's going on?
- He started it.
- your Recite Our Father .
- Our Father ... Give us this day .... Forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those ... So be it.

- No matter it was he who got enfargé.
- your Recite Our Father again.
-Our Father ... as we forgive those ...
- Repeat another again .... let !
After three Our Fathers, he sold.
- " Yes, he said, lowering his head , I'll go first. "
I watch high. He runs. I happy. Today, I am ashamed. He probably does not remember. I do. I'm still bitter. This is not just in Peru that the Church has played in launching or has twisted arms in the name of Jesus Christ!
