I go to a parish in which parishioner involvement is pretty much dead and the priest is glad with this. He's a dour guy. I avoid talking to him, so he doesn't really know me well at all.
But I would like a more active parish life. He tends to write off such people, and I think this is because he's had plenty of people in the past come to him, hot with an idea, but cool off and leave a program, etc., in a mess. So he really wants nothing. He just sucks the air out of the situation.
Any suggestion here? I'm thinking of switching parishes.
