Chicago Priest: Sorry For "Choice of Words" in Homosexual "Blessing"

Rev. Joseph Williams, C.M., pastor of St Vincent de Paul Parish in Chicago, issued a 'facade' apology on 8 May for his [pseudo] blessing of two lesbian women on 21 April.

It appears that Williams was forced to issue the apology. He regrets only "the language of the blessing", the use of the church and liturgical vestments, but insists he "meant it well".

"The form that the blessing took, as shown in the video, was due to my attempt to give them a meaningful (!) moment of God's grace (!)".

It was only when the video of the pseudo wedding went viral that Williams realised he had "made a very poor choice of words".

"I am deeply sorry for any confusion and/or anger this has caused, especially to the people of God."

He didn't apologise for the blasphemy he committed, he won't be punished, and no reparations will be made.

A priest in Chicago has apologized for the controversial way in which he blessed a same-sex couple in April, calling it a “very poor decision” that violated Catholic Church’s new guidelines.

You got away eith it though, didn’t you? Apology NOT accepted.
James Manning
Apparently Fr. Joseph "regrets" his actions here. But would he regret his sacrilege if the video of the event never went online?
Wilma Lopez
Let's assume the answer is "no".
la verdad prevalece
The apostate Joseph Williams, C.M., pastor of St. Vincent de Paul Parish in Chicago mocks God and defies His Natural Law in front of everyone and then has the gall to continue disguised as a Pastor when he is a hireling serving the devil.

Much too little, far too late. God will NOT be mocked!

How can you bless something that is against God?!
Ann Smith
You can't. The ones doing the so-called 'blessing', are doing it to their own destruction.

'Homosexual' is the CORRECT word!!
