I'm sorry he's being cryptic. Apparently he feels he has a need to talk to you in person, maybe he needs absolution and that's what a priest is for. Something is definitely on his mind and he's not going to let it go until you meet up w/him.

I am going to keep you in my thoughts and prayers. I know that this is not something that you really want to do. Sit quietly and the answers will come on how to deal w/this issue.

Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to.
The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
