The Vatican slaps back at Kentucky Catholic church that blesses same sex couple

[Demovictory9]

The Vatican has slapped down a Kentucky Catholic Church after a bishop gave a 'private blessing' to a lesbian couple.

Wearing a long rainbow-colored scarf, the Very Reverend Richard Watson blessed the couple at Historic Saint Paul Catholic Church in Lexington on December 31.

The church shared an image of the ritual via Facebook on New Year's Day, with the caption: 'History was made Sunday at Historic Saint Paul Catholic Church.


'This same-sex couple, civilly married for 22 years, asked for a blessing which Fr Richard freely offered according to the guidelines in Fiducia Supplicans.'

But the Vatican disagreed with this interpretation of the 2023 doctrine, issuing a press release to counter it.
