There are young people who make fun of the old, perhaps they ignore that whoever reaches old age, passed through youth, and that the path is the same for even.
Last week José Isidro Guerrero Macías, better known as Father Chilo, or Father Siri, left earthly life, he was 71 years old, he was ordained a priest in Culiacán on June 27, 1977, and bishop of the diocese of Mexicali on June 31 May 1997, until his death.
He was originally from Iraguato, union of Sataya Navolato, where he went every year end to live with his people, there he managed to build a very large church and left unfinished a work that intended to rescue young drug addicts to channel them to the path of service to others.
He loved the sport of soccer, and part of his mission was to form teams in the ranches of the Navolato municipality, which he supported with uniforms and balls every time he visited their region.
Every New Year’s Eve he traveled from Mexicali to Iraguato and from there he went through each town, where he undertook the task of baptizing, confirming, giving communion and marrying couples who lived in free union.
There were hundreds of heretics that Father Chilo encountered as he passed through the towns on the coast of Navolato, and about five years ago we asked him: “Listen, father, and do you charge for this baptism and all that?” …. “Hear me, hear me” –He replied- “Do you think that we priests live on pure charity or what?” … What a hard blow!
