Today I spoke to Fr T and explained that this year we had added a number of new fundraisers and given he was unable to attend because of the EBOLA outbreak;
that we were thinking, that we might cancel these new fundraisers, as the response was so far low.
… I would rather have walked over hot coals than listen to his response, I have never heard him so frustrated, it is hard to listen to, and not feel somewhat helpless and even selfish.
What really made me squirm, is his comment that he is making his own burial plans; just in case!
