柬埔寨天主教徒迎來首位本土教會牧者

在紅高棉統治結束差不多 50 年後,柬埔寨天主教會迎來首位土生土長的柬埔寨人領導該國的一個宗座監牧區。教會領袖稱讚這是當地教會一個歷史性的轉折點。

來自柬埔寨三個宗座牧區約 60 名神父於 10 月 1 日參加了伯多祿·漢利·蘇恩 (Pierre Hangly Suon) 神父履任磅湛宗座監牧區監牧的祝聖禮。

過去三年擔任磅湛宗座監牧區署理的巴黎外方傳教會士布魯諾·科斯梅 (Bruno Cosme) 主教說,這是「當地教會的歷史性時刻」。

他說:「這是柬埔寨教會邁出的重要一步。」

曾任泰國、柬埔寨、緬甸等國教廷大使的韓籍張仁南 (Paul Tschang In-Nam) 總主教與蘇恩神父一起共祭了彌撒。

五十一歲的蘇恩神父是首位被任命為磅湛宗座監牧區的本地人。磅湛是柬埔寨三個宗座牧區之一,另外兩個是金邊宗座代牧區和馬德望宗座監牧區。

磅湛縣覆蓋柬埔寨東部的八個省分,如磅湛、桔井、上丁、臘塔納基里省、蒙多基里、柴楨和波羅勉。

蘇恩神父出生於 1971 年。他於2001 年在金邊晉鐸。在 2007 至 2015 年期間他於巴黎學習,並於 2015 年 7 月獲教宗方濟各任命為磅湛宗座監牧。

磅湛目前有約 20,000 名天主教徒。在其約 1600 人口中,大部分是佛教徒。

科斯梅主教說:「在柬埔寨開始福傳時,一直由巴黎外方傳教會士帶領。」

過去幾個世紀以來,巴黎外方傳教會一直負責這項使命。 在 1955 至 1975 年間,他們組成了當地神職團隊,七名柬埔寨神父,其中包括當地教會的兩位領袖:馬德望監牧區的泰姆·索塔 (Paul Tep Im Sotha) 主教,以及第一位也是唯一一位領導金邊代牧區的柬埔寨人契瑪·薩拉斯 (Joseph Chhmar Salas) 蒙席。

科斯梅主教說:「但這兩位牧者都紅高棉政權下去世。」

他說:「這次晉牧和履任是重要的一步……對當地教會來說是一件喜事。」

他表示,巴黎外方傳教會士於 1990 年返回柬埔寨,這些教區的「一切都必須重建」。從那時起,「柬埔寨有三個外國牧者。我們現在有了一位新的柬埔寨牧者。

蘇恩神父在履任前說:「人們對甘榜湛第一位高棉監牧的任命感到高興。這是重要的一步。我們能夠管理我們的教會,這對當地教會來說是一件高興的事。」

他說:「這是一個地域相當大的牧區,比其他牧區大,但基督徒卻很少。」

蘇恩神父說,他首先想了解當地的團體。 「在這裡,很簡單,我們每個月都會見面,一起祈禱。有許多神父和修會人士已準備幫助我一起完成這項新使命。」

這位新監牧說:「我想幫助縣政府在有少數民族的省分傳福音,比如在臘塔納基里省,那裡的團體可以迅速發展。」

該地區有 21名神父,包括柬埔寨神父,以及來自宗座外方傳教會、拉匝祿會和米爾山傳教會的傳教士。還有一些韓國、意大利和印度的神父,以及厄瓜多爾和法國信德會的神父。

科斯梅主教說:「當安德肋·勒蘇厄夫 (André Lesouëf) 主教(1968 至 1997 年擔任磅湛宗座監牧)來到這裡時,他只找到了一個基督徒。漸漸地,其他人也接受了洗禮。有了新的團體。福傳有一些困難,特別是在城市,我們必須找到最好的方法。」

他表示:「但我相信,在一開始,神父和修會人士必須共同努力。如果我們像家人一樣生活在一起,充滿愛,這是一個很好的見證。」

新任監牧還將面對物質主義的挑戰,這會影響福傳,尤其是在城市。

科斯梅主教指出:「例如在金邊,我們要求村裡的神父提供來首都的教友的聯繫方式,以便他們幫助這些人返回教會。因為如果他們的信仰不堅定,他們離開了他們的村莊,就不會再來了。」

他解釋說,柬埔寨北部和東部的許多少數民族正在皈依天主教。

主教補充:「大多數洗禮來自這些團體。當然,他們可以是柬埔寨人或越南人。但這些少數群體渴望認識基督。」

主教又說,在擁有許多農村堂區的廣闊土地上,蘇恩主教將面對著各種挑戰,當中包括非常小的團體。

他說,重要的是「慈善的責任……就是要接近那些那些病人和窮人。對老年人也有很多事情要做」。

他說:「還有影響很多年輕人的毒品問題。然後一切都與教育有關。」他還提到了四所取得良好成績的高中、天主教學校,以及為男女學生開設的學生宿舍。

他表示:「對於大多數不是基督徒的年輕人來說,有很多事情需要做。教會的存在可以讓他們認識基督。」
