\u201cMy greatest joy is seeing my parishioners come to church,\u201d said Fr. Claudiu Bene, parish priest of a small community in S\u0103laj County, in an interview with Formula AS<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Fr. Claudiu Bene spoke about the pastoral challenges of serving in the village of In\u0103u, S\u0103laj, where a priest must be constantly present in the life of the faithful.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn every parish, there are good and bad things; many things will upset you, but you have to learn to rise above them, forgive even when things don\u2019t go your way, and always speak gently. I believe that\u2019s what a priest is called to do\u2014to become all things to all people. If you do that, it can be good wherever you are.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI was raised to respect the peasant,\u201d he added. \u201cThat man who puts bread on your table deserves true reverence. Because he, in his lack of formal education, carries a goodness and wisdom that those with higher education levels often don\u2019t have and may never attain.\u201d<\/p>\n

People Remain Close to the Church<\/h2>\n

Speaking about community life in In\u0103u, Fr. Claudiu Bene affirmed that elderly people remain the closest to the Church and God.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe elderly are still, body and soul, anchored in the Church and God. I don’t think they could even imagine life without them.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cShortly after arriving in In\u0103u, something deeply moved me. We were renovating the church exterior, and everyone brought what they could. Here, we have no taxes\u2014only a symbolic church contribution. One day, Aunt Jenica came. She\u2019s 94 now. It was raining and cold, but she was barefoot. We were surprised, but she said to us\u2014just to me and the presbytera, because she trusted we wouldn\u2019t judge her\u2014that she has only one pair of shoes, and she keeps them for church\u2026 that\u2019s her whole wealth.\u201d<\/p>\n

Finding Joy in Life\u2019s Hardships<\/h2>\n

When asked why many young theology graduates avoid rural parishes, Fr. Bene emphasized that most fear financial instability and a lack of comfort.<\/p>\n

\u201cToday\u2019s priests worry they can\u2019t make ends meet in a small parish, that they might not even earn a salary. And that\u2019s a real concern. In Domnin, for example, I only earned a salary for four or five months a year. The rest of the time, I grew tomatoes, peppers, whatever we could to get by. It was hard, no doubt. And comfort is probably an issue, too. In a small village, you won\u2019t have the utilities or amenities that a bigger, wealthier parish or city might offer.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Sorrows and Joys of Village Life<\/h2>\n

\u201cThe greatest sadness for the elderly is not seeing their children return home,\u201d the priest shared, pointing out that loneliness becomes a heavy burden for many who remain in rural areas.<\/p>\n

\u201cI consider myself, first and foremost, a peasant. So I speak from experience when I say\u2014I don\u2019t dwell on sadness. I focus on joy. The joy of waking up in the morning, thanking God for everything I have: a wonderful family, a community of worthy and dear people, and reasonably good health. For me, the greatest joy is to be here, in my church, with my parishioners, to see them coming to church\u2014because that\u2019s when you truly know the Church is alive.\u201d<\/p>\n
