Father as a man, the founder of the messengers of Labaz: “I will retire when I am older”

Father Angel (Meris, 88, in the Church of San Anton, “after” Christianity in the center of the Choika neighborhood opens the open neighborhood of … 24 hours for anyone who needs help or simply wants to pray. The messengers of La Paz, the Solidarity Organization, which was founded by this global Istorian from the Fifth Pope there for 1962. Angel Garcia Rodriguez, whose name is in identity, opens on an interview with an explicit smiling mark, just like his red neck and its provision that always carries it on his head.
– How much does he not admit?
– I admit every week. Confession is repentance, dialogue and venting with someone. This means saying sins. When I admit and start telling me all the sins, I stop. With you regret, enough. May God forgive. And a lot breathes.
Do you know your worst sin?
Do not love people. Being a child, I met a lying man on the street, I thought he died and passed. When I went to tell my father, he told me that he had drunk from anise. It has delayed me something, but although I was only seven years, I have always been that I did not help this man.
What is he listened to recently in confession?
They feel that they do not love them at home, that they are not anyone or that they do not have a bed where they sleep or money to pay the rent. This is a tremendous pain. Although you cannot do much to fix their situation, they assure you to hear them already put a knot in my throat because everything we did sometimes is, listen.
Do you ask many times tolerance?
– Yes, I prefer to apologize for permission. For this reason I am full of forgiveness. There are many things if I ask for permission, I couldn’t do it. For example, this Saint Anton Church opens 24 hours. We have just reached ten years old, but at first they put many pits to open it.
He was said to his church that he was “after” Christianity.
– Yes, yes, I get to know that.
– Are you a “after” goalkeeper?
– completely.
He is 88 years old, who is from the Fifth Pope. Do you retire?
– Yes, but when he is older.
How do you see Francisco?
– Wine for living, staying potatoes and revolution in this church. He was the first to say ten years ago, “How do I want a poor church for the poor.” I was there.
– It turned out that there is a moment in Gemelli Doctors thought of allowing him to leave …
Well, we all went through the times when we could have gone. The last time I was with the Pope was in November. He saw me and said, “But an angel, are you alive?” “We are alive, holiness.” He said, “Yes, yes, though some …”, haha. 88 years is nothing.
Do you see the resignation of Francisco?
– He has always resigned. Several years ago, he left a written message from which he resigned. But there are people with very bad grapes who do not know why I want me to resign. Let the Pope remain potatoes as he wants and can!
– You don’t want me to resign …
– I do not want him to die and I hope he will not give up.
– And why does the Pope have many enemies inside the church?
– Because it disturbs. Catholics bother us that things are changing. This Pope has changed many things. He has changed by wearing clothes, preaching, and the way to travel … is the Pope who said that being Cardinal is not an honor, it is a service.
– But being a “Bosk” potato …
– Yes, but you can do a lot of the father from Skrstan.
– I met all the Pope from Paul VI …
50 years ago, I went to see Paul VI to the Vatican with some children. We were able to remove the episode to sell it, but the gorilla that was with him made us return it, ha ha ha
Sanchess and Feijóo
“I invited them to two San Anton, without cameras … and they did not say” no “
He feels comfortable when they tell him that he is Hood Robin who takes money for the wealthy to give him the poor.
– Not only to taste, but happy. Because those who give it to me are happy so that those who do not have it are happy. I do not steal the wealthy, and I tell you to distribute it.
– In these wealthy wedding parties and celebrities that stipulate, then in the banquet, what are they talking about?
I made thousands of weddings and did not perform any banquet. They carried me. They put the priest on a table and what to do there, what are you talking about? My sister got married, but I did not eat. And when I say that, no one gets angry.
Let me a small joke. Have you ever imagined your funeral? On the one side of the church, the wealthy and the other “Withouthogar” from San Anton …
– Within twenty years, I imagine the funeral of these.
Should the Church look a little more than Saint Anton?
No, I think the church is rich in churches such as Saint Anton or as the complexity of Jeronimus (the Church of Madrid “Peugeot). There are no 300 open churches 24 hours. Because you also need volunteers. It does not leave it open and that’s all.
– And in San Anton there are well -known volunteers …
– Yes, Marchna, Minister Marlaska, Mayor Al -Mida, Iñaki and Angel Gaplondo, Garandi … come, put on the jacket, give them the coffee maker and start distributing breakfast in the seventy in the morning.
– Queen Letizia, who is like you, has a very strong solidarity vein. Will not be surprised by her vision one day here?
– no. I think she feels happy or at least when she is with the most deprived. So on what day you can come here to give coffee. The same thing has already come …
How many atheists do you know are close to God?
– a lot. Garhamde, the business chief, once told me about Cándido Méndez, an atheist who is voluntary for many years.
– What do you do to volunteer?
– Come and register. But before desire, value and strength. There are people who want, but they cannot do it because they work all day. And another does not deserve this. I, for example, do not deserve to be in a hospital with my end children because my body is removed.
Pope Francisco
“I see him wants to live, but there are those who want him to surrender, let him continue as long as he wants!”
Father Angel, how is your God?
– The person on the street, the person sitting there on the banks of San Anton, the person you find on the street, or the person you find in the office or sitting here, you are divine.
– If Jesus enters from the door of San Anton, what does he say?
Go there to the kitchen, prepare coffee and some snacks. And hit them. But there is a lot of “Jesus” entering and saying, what can I do?
Two scarves in the pocket
What do you say is the sin of our time?
– Not dialogue. I called Feijóo and Sánchez to come to coffee without cameras or journalists for dialogue. They didn’t say no, but I haven’t gathered them yet.
– Do you cry a lot?
I always wear two usteen, one sound and another for tears. In Gaza, I had children in the arms of dying. How will you be completely before that drama?
– Does Broncas take care of that?
– Yes. We have reasons for anger from God. As soon as Pope Francis accompanied a trip to the Philippines and asked him a girl crying, why do children die? And the Pope answered, there is no answer, the only answer is your tears.
When colon cancer was diagnosed, thirteen years ago, he also cried …
Yes, because I have many things to do. Because I had to tell friends. I hid crying. I also did not live my mother and cry with your mother or father comforted. This is why it is extremely important for someone to listen to you. I was at Tennervi Airport when they called Saramago to communicate that they gave him the Nobel Prize for Literature. He was with Belar, his wife, and with Gabardina in his hand. And I said who will you call? “I don’t have to tell him, angel. For the only person who may concern and be happy, my wife is here with me.”
By the way, how is this done after cancer?
– I feel good, but I still have things to do, for example, to raise awareness among people more than the unit that can be treated.

“God always forgives, enough to regret. A lot of breathing »
– When things get worse, you get Kovadonga to pray to Santina …
– always! For good things and bad things. When the Pope became very bad, I went there; When I was diagnosed with cancer, I went there. When they gave me this church, I went there to thank. I have a lot of dedication in Santina, and I always hold it with me in my hands. And I never take the phone if it is not with me.
– And so on?
– Because I fear calls with news other than good. I take Santina and pressure (teaches a key chain with the image of the Kofadonga Virgin) when it looks mobile devices.
– Here in Saint Anton, the poor do not bother, but outside …
They are just bothering if it is a bad smell. Once a person who enters this church says it is a bad smell. I think I hope you have one day to order coffee or a blanket request for a cold.
Do you have many children who have received?
– Many, many. We are in 77 countries and served 60,000 children. What happens is that from time to time someone wants to assume that he has a father and says, “The father Angel welcome me.”
– But many of these children call it my father?
– Some yes.
Is your heart not running?
– No, because I am really. Even if I don’t start, I am. And if I live in his home, I will accept him at night and tell him that I love you. He tells me, because I love you too.
– How much money do you have?
I hardly know what I receive a month. I have a pension, but I don’t know if it is 1100 or 1,200 euros. But I do not need money.
– He says that Jesus was very good.
– Yes, yes. If you were Jesus, I will not allow me to be killed. With the force that the uncle had, I escaped from all of these … the evidence is that I was in Baghdad, in Lebanon, in Yemen, in Haiti … in many war sites, and I did not allow myself to kill.
What do you think of immigrant minors?
– It is a scandal that there is no president for any independent society to welcome these children more. Every person sticks to the least welcome. It is a huge market.

“With the authority I have, if I would not be allowed to kill.”
What do we do with children in the church?
– Since this Pope appeared and got this, the sexual children have not been covered for children; It is punished, asking for forgiveness and reform. This Pope put his finger on the sore, and if there is 20,000 or 200,000 before, it seems now that there is a lot, right?
When is the female priesthood in the Catholic Church?
– If that was for me this afternoon.
– Tell Francisco!
– I may want to do it or do it, but there is no theological or human reason because the woman is a monastery, not a priest or a sheet. The problem is not that the priests are married or that women can be priests, the problem is that it is a church for the poor and the poor, which is what the Pope wants.
– What will the last day in your life?
– Praise be to God, and the parents, to society and the people who surrounded me, and ask the people who want, the same message two thousand years ago.
