On June 11, 2022, for the first time in Italy, a same-sex couple received a church blessing for “marriage” in the church of San Lorenzo in Budrio, reports the Italian Catholic news site, Daily Compass.
Pietro Moretti and Giacomo Spagnoli registered their marriage in the municipality of Budrio.
Then, with numerous relatives and friends, they arrived at the church of San Lorenzo for a solemn mass.
In order to circumvent the Roman Catholic church’s prohibition against same-sex marriages, the priests invented a special “mass of thanksgiving” in order to tie the sinful knot between Pietro and Giacomo. Father Gabriele Davalli, who led the service, said that the Archbishop Matteo Maria Zuppi of Bologna, chairman of the Italian Conference of Bishops, blessed the ceremony.
When asked how it was that they violated the Catholic church’s specific laws on marriage, Fr. Davalli replied, “Because every Mass is a thanksgiving… If you're referring to the two young men, Giacomo and Pietro, who contracted their civil union, they participated just like all the other people who were in the church.”
In fact, after Holy Communion on that day, the two men came up to the altar where the priest than handed them an apron. Fr. Davalli explains this curious gesture: “The handing over of this apron signifies that these two young men have always served the community by coordinating hospitality.”
Everything else about this special “mass of thanksgiving” looked for all intents and purposes like a wedding, complete with family and friends throwing rice.

Slip-sliding to hell.
Wrong, just plain wrong.
Blessing anal sex. Yuck.
God won’t be mocked.
On 22 May 2022 The Holy Father, in accordance with Art. 26 § 1 of the Statute of the Italian Episcopal Conference, has appointed Cardinal Zuppi, archbishop of Bologna, as president of the same Italian Episcopal Conference.
Another rotten fruit of Franken Church.
Throwing Rice in Budrio for the First time in Italy.
How Devilishly Quaint.

The ‘Holy Catholic’ church
Has more than the
Blood of Saints on
it’s Hands.
Vatican II was just a stepping stone for the NWO to take down the Church and pacify its leadership. Next order of business is to take away the guns which is on its way in the USA. Appears Colombia, S.A. has gone Socialist as the Domino Effect will continue in the Latin countries. Soros and Obozo are well financed and its only a matter of time for the NWO to be the complete game changer. Kiss it goodbye.
Holy sh1t.
Awful. Church sanctioned perverted mental illness.
Mark 10: 5-9.
And they laughed their asses off all the way out of the church. Suckers!
The gates of hell will never prevail against the Church-- We have Christ's promise on it. But the faithful remnant is getting pretty small.
Doesn’t seem as if Peter would ageee to head a church like that.
Yup,
Circling the Drain.

But the 2nd Amendment
Won’t go Quietly,
‘Mericans are unique
in that respect but
We may see.
And +Francis will do nothing, because he never applies discipline to any but traditionalists. He’s definitely in the running for “worst Pope in history”.
And Church leaders will do nothing about it.
A bunch of Bologna.
