Back in Nov, my dad lost his regular 9-5 job.... honestly he was asking for it- always late and took WAYYY too many sick days, but I think that was because he hated his job so much. So anyway, that was bad but he had the job at the church to fall back on. Today he found out that he is done at the church as of June 30. I am so sick about this. He worked at that church for 31 years but this priest has had it in for him from the beginning... says he makes too much money, isn't involved in "ministry" enough ect..... yes my dad has a temper and has been known to make people uncomfortable, but there were a few letters written to the pastor that were simply NOT TRUE or blatant exaggerations of things that went on. I feel so back because this is how he identified himself and now what? I am also nervous because depression and suicide runs in my family (my grandpa and great granpa both committed suicide).
My dad is payig for the reception (which I feel so bad about in light of the situation) but he says that the money is still there for that. He also is going to have to walk me down the aisle at a church that fired him...... and that puts such a damper on things. To add to all this, the priest that fired him is doing our counseling (but not marrying us) and we have to meet with him tomorrow.... ugh!
