On Sunday evening between 25 and 30 people attended the first in a series of lectures scheduled for the winter and spring. Fr. Tom Weinandy, a Capuchin priest walked through the Church's position concerning parish ministries to people with a homosexual tendency.
While there was no bending of the Church's stand on homsexual activity, Fr. Weinandy made very clear the Church opposition to any violation of the human dignity of any homosexual person. As a Pastor, I left with a feeling that Fr. Weinandy could have offered more concerning the second part of the Bishops' document under consideration.
Some parishioners and guests expressed their strong gratitude for the parish being open to the possibility of some discussion of the document.
SECOND LECTURE: February 25, 2007
