Portrait of the synthetic persona Tadeusz Wilk

Tadeusz Wilk

Roman Catholic parish priest, parish cluster (4–5 parishes) · Gmünd district, Waldviertel (Lower Austria)

◆ Synthetic persona — not a real human Life-World: The Preservers · Home & Constancy Decides: dependent 66 yrs · Austria

As parish priest, Tadeusz Wilk looks after several parishes in the Gmünd district; he came from Poland decades ago, has been at home here ever since, and knows the long drives between aging congregations well. These days, funerals are the pastoral duty he performs more often than any other, calmly and without haste. In the district he is known as the priest who still answers the phone himself and who, even with several churches to serve on a single Sunday, finds a personal word for everyone.

Tech affinity
Reserved but not dismissive — a simple smartphone for calls and for coordinating dates with the sacristans, a laptop in the parish office for sermon preparation and the parish cluster's website, which a volunteer actually maintains. He went along with online Masses during the lockdown period because it was necessary, not because the technology appealed to him.
Defining bias
He responds more strongly to whoever calls or catches his attention — a phone call, a message passed on through a sacristan — than to the quiet need he never hears about, because in a parish cluster this far-flung, no one person can keep track of everything alone.
How he decides
He decides much in conversation — with the local parish council in question, more rarely alone at his desk, because he knows that without the volunteers in his parishes nothing moves forward anyway. On larger questions, say a church renovation or the merging of Mass times, he takes his time and discusses it with the deans' conference before committing.
