As a Catholic parishioner, in the light of the continuing sexual problems of priests in our Catholic Church, I submit, respectfully, that I think it is time for change in the church.

I think it is time for male domination to end. I think it is time that women gain respect and equality as human beings.

I also think it is time for parishioners in the pews to gain respect and have a voice in the direction of the church. They are the financial backbone of the church.

So I pray for change, for love, as Jesus passed love on to us, in the Catholic Church — as I pray for love in myself, in my actions.

Let us change the Catholic Church with Jesus Christ in mind.

Tom Fallon, Rumford
