Fr. John Malloy, SDB reports that Mr. Carrizosa who is an acolyte and lector at San Francisco’s infamous Most Holy Redeemer parish has “married” his male partner. He also reports that by his count this makes five people serving liturgical roles in the parish as having gotten “married.”
Father than quotes from “Redemptionis Sacramentum” #46
“The lay Christian faithful called to give assistance at liturgical celebrations should be well instructed and must be those whose Christian life, morals and fidelity to the Church’s Magisterium recommend them.”

Isn’t this an open and shut case of obstinate manifest sin – just like divorced and civilly remarried people.
What? This is outrageous. Since returning to the Catholic church, I’ve been very disappointed that the inmates have taken over the asylum. Sorry for the harsh comparison, but there are a bunch of whackjobs out there who somehow have gotten into positions of power and are running wild.
You know, the operation manual really isn’t that hard to understand. Unfortunately, there are too many people in the Catholic church trying to make modifications on a perfect unit. With each “tweak,” they install a fatal error. Just pathetic and more importantly, damning.
Woe to he who leads a little one astray…
More utterly and horrendously disgusting heresy from the folks who yearly bring us the Folsom Street Fair,care of Mostly Homo Redactor Parish,or is that ”Perish”?

With no leadership to be found, look for a tradtional chapel where worship as it was for centuries and people obey the canons, the teachings and catechism and dont look for loopholes to make themselves feel better, but instead look at these so called “strict” rules as something to help them obtain salvation exist
God bless you on your journey
