A lot of priests and some bishops think Rome is out of touch with the local churches. Sometimes you have that impression, and sometimes it's true. When someone doesn't have first-hand experience, when they live in an office and receive only written information, that could be true. That's why each bishop's visit to Rome every five years is important. Bishops' synods are a good place to say what you want to say, clearly and sincerely, not only trying to give a good image of your country, but telling the truth.
Communication is generally pretty good.
The Catholic Church is frequently criticized for not allowing women to become priests. In Latin America, for many centuries, the main participants in the life of the Church have been women. Our problem has been men, not women. How to get men to church. Our women will never think about being priests.
