hahaha ... dear sirknight friend, I always stay last to comment; good Jesus said to his disciples: "the first will be the last ...".
I hope you read my comment, you are brave and wise friend, and not specifically for the context of the issue, but for the wisdom and humility you have to hear advice and correct mistakes.
I think you did what Jesus would have done. the rest is on behalf of all parishioners,. Honesty is a value that must be practiced by all.
Once again your words touched my soul. God bless you.
