My wife joined those creeps a little over a year ago... And she does so all those stupid things you mentioned...reading from a tiny book,
Spending way too much time "praying"...daily mass...sleeping without a pillow...
not going to mention how some aspects directly affect me...
And yet she seems to think it's all good...
Ps: I'm actually shaking, after reading this... (what an eye-opener) thanks!
Sorry to hear that Most of the supernumeraries in Russia are married and their spouses are not involved in OD, we were the first supernumerary couple in Russia, even received a letter from OD Prelate. It's easier for supernumeraries whose spouses are not in OD, they can always 'blame' them for not letting them to go on a retreat or for using contraception.
I can only suggest watching some videos with Escriva's public speeches in Argentina or Peru, I don't know why but when you actually look at him in videos instead of reading his books you can see what a sneaky, unpleasant and bigoted person he was. I would also recommend giving her the book by Maria Carmen del Tapia I've mentioned, it helped me a lot.
Thanks...I'll give it a look.
Not sure she'd be receptive to it though...
It's not like she's making excuses not to follow those directives...she IS following them... :le sigh:
