Question

read the quote from leslie marmon silkos story \the man to send rain clouds.\ \well, im glad you understand. i hope ill be seeing you at mass this week—we missed you last sunday. see if you can get old teofilo to come with you.\ the priest smiled and waved at them as they drove away. this quote is located early in the narrative. what does it reveal about father paul? he is out of touch with the community he serves. he does not care for the members of his congregation. he knows that teofilo has died.

Explanation:

In the context of the story, Teofilo has already died at this point, but Father Paul is unaware of this fact and asks the characters to bring Teofilo to Mass. His lack of knowledge about a key event affecting the community member shows he is disconnected from the community he serves. The other options are incorrect: he expresses care by noting he missed them, so he does care for his congregation, and he clearly does not know Teofilo has died.

Answer:

He is out of touch with the community he serves.
