Agenzia Fides REPORT - The Episcopal Conference of Paraguay (ECP) is preparing to analyze the national and ecclesial reality in the context of the next ordinary meeting in the year 2011, which will take place from Monday, November 7 to Friday 11. The Apostolic Nuncio will inaugurate the work. The evaluation of the activities carried out in 2011 are on the agenda: the relationship of the commissions and coordination groups, the Catholic University and the National Major Seminary. The new President of the ECP will also be elected. Currently the President of the Episcopal Conference is Mgr. Pastor Cuquejo, Archbishop of Asuncion, who will hand over the task to his successor, chosen through a vote.
To carry out an analysis of the national situation, the Bishops want to be well informed about the existing problems at a social level and also deepen the economic and political aspects, for this reason, according to information gathered by Fides, they have asked the opinion of some specialists, who are well integrated into the national reality. After listening to the experts, the Bishops will discuss the situation in the country, informed the Bishop of Caacupé, His Exc. Mgr. Claudio Gimenez, Vice President of the Episcopal Conference.
The Bishop himself has expressed his concern for the management of President Fernando Lugo, recognizing the inefficiency of the State. "We are always concerned about the situation in the country - said the Bishop -. We deal with many people of all kinds in our dioceses, and this is reflected in social life and the life of the Church because the Church is immersed in society, so she just cannot avoid being involved in everything that happens".
The Church of Paraguay awaits the appointment of several Bishops by the Holy Father and the creation of new ecclesiastical districts. (CE) (Agenzia Fides 04/11/2011)
