20 years in my priestly ministry I have been involved in blessing ceremonies of every description. Including blessings of pets, cows, crops, rings, cars, tractors……Yet a same sex couple who request a simple blessing on their union must be turned away. This is not Christianity.

Kelly Harrington is a national treasure. I wish her future with her partner health and happiness. I find it sad that as church we can bless cars, tractors… ……… I’m not assuming this couple may want such ritual, but for many likewise who do we should….. #akunametta

Don’t want to sound repetitive, but if I can bless cars, fields, tractors, …… but am prohibited from blessing humans, full of love and integrity, because of their sexuality or marital status is bizarre…. Out of touch and deeply discriminatory…… love is love……
