A couple of observations from the story below:
1) Clergy are now on hands & knee begging LGBT---not to Repent but rather stay (as LGBT) in the church?
2) Governor Raimondo doesn't believe Clergy within Christendom should be discouraging Christians from Sodomish Celebrations?
3) Notice the state-of-the-world today.....here we have Church (the Priest) and State (the Governor) Joining verbally together to encourage Christians to PARTICIPATE in Sin Celebrating Events.....interesting...And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.
Genesis 6:5
"A priest is asking parishioners not to leave his church over a tweet by Rhode Island's bishop urging Roman Catholics to not support or attend LGBTQ Pride Month events.
The Rev. Edward L. Pieroni begged gay and lesbian parishioners not to leave the church during Sunday services at St. Raymond's Roman Catholic Church in Providence, The Boston Globe reported
"A lot of people have hung in there, but it's like, 'One more slap and we are done.' I am here to beg you — and I will get on my hands and knees and beg you — not to leave," Pieroni told the congregation.
Diocese of Providence Bishop Thomas Tobin sparked a backlash beginning Saturday when he tweeted, "A reminder that Catholics should not support or attend LGBTQ 'Pride Month' events held in June. They promote a culture and encourage activities that are contrary to Catholic faith and morals. They are especially harmful for children."
Rhode Island is one of the most heavily Catholic states.
Democratic Gov. Gina Raimondo told reporters in Newport on Monday for an unrelated event that the bishop's comments were "very unfortunate." She said that she stands with the LGBTQ community and that Pride Month events are an expression of equality, love and tolerance. She told WPRO-AM she doesn't think the bishop meant to hurt anyone, but his comments made a lot of people feel unsafe, unwanted and unloved."
