From
Jane Anderson’s “Priest in Love: Roman Catholic Clergy and Their Intimate
Friendships” (a book of interviews with Australian priests) (p. 189):
Fr.
Jordan and Tabatha also negotiate the situation that presents itself after he
finishes celebrating the Eucharist.
“Every one wants to talk to me after Eucharist, so I make sure she has
the car keys, and she just goes and sits in the car. She sees my priesthood as my profession, and
it’s as if I were a company director, she wouldn’t want to be on the board.”
