Kenya Leader Rejects Pope Francis' Homosexual 'Blessings': 'We Will Never Accept Same-Sex Couples'

"Any form of blessing of same-sex unions and activities would go against God's Word, the teachings of the Church, the African cultural traditions, the laws of our nations, and would be scandalous to the faithful..." -Nairobi Archbishop Philip Anyolo

(Nairobi, Kenya) — [LifeSiteNews.com] Kenya Public Service Cabinet Secretary Moses Kuria has supported the decision by Nairobi Archbishop Philip Anyolo to prohibit clergy from "blessing" same-sex "couples" following Pope Francis' endorsement of such "blessings." (Screengrab image)

"The decision by Archbishop Anyolo on blessing of same sex couples is the position of all of us from the Roman Catholic Church in Kenya. We will never accept same sex couples in the Kenyan Church, with utmost and profound respect and reverence to the Pope," said Kuria, who has been referred to as a "heavyweight" in Kenyan politics.

In a public letter published on December 23 in response to Fiducia Supplicans, Anyolo affirmed that the clergy of his archdiocese cannot "bless" "irregular relationships, unions, or same sex couples," in order to uphold the "perennial teachings of the Church on marriage."

Fiducia Supplicans, signed by Cardinal Víctor Manuel Fernández of the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith and approved by Pope Francis, allows "blessings for couples in irregular situations and for couples of the same sex" in contradiction to the unchangeable Catholic teaching that the Church cannot bless sinful relationships.

"All Clergy residing and ministering in the Archdiocese of Nairobi are prohibited from blessing irregular relationships, unions, or same sex couples," declared Anyolo. "Any form of blessing of same-sex unions and activities would go against God'sWord, the teachings of the Church, the African cultural traditions, the laws of our nations, and would be scandalous to the faithful," he continued.

He added that "homosexual unions are against reason" and "against nature"... Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
