Spring Reflection on Pastoral Year Experience Pastoral Reflection: The last 6 months of Pastoral Year has been a great blessing. The people in the Parish received me with such love and care. It will certainly be hard to step away in 3 months time when the Pastoral Year ends. During this Pastoral Year, I have gotten to really know a lot of people in the Parish, some closer than others.

king, but instead by individual lords, also known as barons. These lords or so called barons administered their own estates, dispensed their own justice, minted their own money, levied taxes and tolls, and demanded military service from vassals.

The Black Death caused Lords to no longer be able to manage, protect and produce what they otherwise would be able to and whole towns and cities shut down, causing a loss of necessary jobs.

It was certainly much harder to hold a manorial court with people who were afraid to leave their houses and so the system could not work as usual. As lords lost their power, peasants…

The basic structure of feudalism is a king at the top who had lords to serve him. As for castles those were built by the nobles in order to enable protection.

everyone, rich or poor (Nardo 27). Because of that, he was able to maintain a powerful yet comfortable lifestyle (Nardo 27). The king also received protection as the lord supplied him with great armies of knights (Biel 9). He was also expected to do his set of obligations to keep the feudal system running. He was expected to grant the lord a fief (Nardo 19). The most common form was an estate or manor. (Nardo 19) It included a house, maybe a small castle, and homes for resident peasants…
