I’m interested in the experience of Catholic across the country. Did you pastor address the SCOTUS decision in favor of gay marriage? If so, what did he say? If not, how do you feel about your pastor’s silence?
In my parish, in Steubenville, Ohio neither my pastor, nor my deacon–who preached the homily and is a faithful theology professor–said anything about marriage. There were no comments in the homily. There were no petitions about it during the prayers of the faithful. There was no brief discussion after communion. There was no letter from our bishop. Nothing. It was like it never happened.
How is the Church responding to this historic crisis in your neck of the woods?
Comment, as always, are on moderation. It can take up to 24 hours for me to get time to go through them so be patient. EVERY respectful comment about the topic–regardless of the side you are on–WILL be posted as soon as I get to it.
