意大利主教團:修生人數減少,願家庭是聖召的園圃

修生

By Vatican News

Nov 5 2021

意大利主教團一份報告中的數據顯示,在短短10年中,聖召人數逐漸減少,下降幅度為28%。在50年中,聖召人數減少了一大半。該國主教團副秘書長賈諾拉神父表示,“這情況不應讓我們失去希望”。

(梵蒂岡新聞網)意大利教區修生人數大幅下降。在2009年至2019年中,聖召人數逐漸減少了28%。若從更長的時間來看,我們會發現,就如最近的《聖座年鑒》數據所證實的那樣,在過去的50年中,聖召人數減少幅度超過了60%:1970年為6337人,而在2019人則下降至2103人。以上是意大利主教團通過繁重的工作和研究後公布的數字。這些數字顯示了一個國家司鐸候選人越來越少、年齡越來越大的狀況:現今,教區修生有1804人,平均年齡稍微超過28歲。10個人中,有4個年齡介於19歲至25歲之間。

意大利主教團副秘書長、主教團全國聖召辦公室主任賈諾拉(Michele Gianola)神父日前向本新聞網明確表示,“這情況絕不該讓我們失去希望”。他解釋道,現在比以往任何時候都更要面對“聖召危機,要用心去面對、關注此事,而不僅僅是焦慮地擔憂此事”。

賈諾拉神父解釋說,聖召人數迅速下降的原因也與意大利人口出生率低有關。除此之外,“危機的根源之一,就是不能只把注意力放在司鐸聖召上,也要關注所有聖召,諸如婚姻聖召、度奉獻生活聖召,以及聖秩聖召”。

賈諾拉神父的其中一個最大的擔憂是聖召的苗芽封閉在人們心中,無法破土而出。他說,“在福音中,我們不知道撒播的聖言為什麼在很多時候沒有結出果實,但是教會要使這些種子成長不能依靠技術:為了讓天主的生命廣傳於世,我們需要注視”。

意大利主教團的報告中指出,有一個孩子以上的家庭繼續被視為地地道道的聖召園圃。根據報告中的數據,10個修生中只有1個是獨生子。賈諾拉神父最後表示,“家庭能創造出適合聖召成長茁壯的空間”。- VaticanNews
