A lively parish in a peculiar way

An excerpt from this interview with Father José Antonio Fortea, priest and exorcist of the Diocese of Alcala de Henares in Madrid.

Q: Do the faithful of your parish know about exorcisms?

Father Fortea: It is one of my greatest joys. I think it is the only parish in the world in which very many of the faithful, from 18 to 70 years old, take part weekly in exorcisms. It is perhaps the only one in the world in which they are known both by the mayor and the police. If they hear shouting they don't come in because they know what is going on there.
