The lesbo will show up next Sunday for mass. Will Fr. Guarnizo stand tall?

But why does she want to receive Communion? If she disagrees with the Church on the sinfulness of homosexual activity, she should leave.
The Catholic church should be doing the same thing to Pelosi and Kerry because they promote/believe in abortion.
I'm not a Catholic but I wish the church would grow some cojones. I was heartened by their attitude towards the nobamacare contraception debacle. Let's go, keep that attitude growing and stronger.
LGBT seeking confrontation not communion.
Sure, that was written into canon law because the Catholic Church has investments in the ink industry!
Everything this gal is doing confirms that she is unrepentant. He made the right choice in telling her she shouldn’t come forward for communion and passing her over when she came anyway. Every single act she’s done in this instance reflects a contempt for the Word of the Lord.
The actions of this perv dishonor the celebration of the life of her own mother.
Hell hath no fury like a bull dyke scorned.
Oh wait, I don’t know if she is the top or the bottom in that “relationship”.
Stupid Catholic apparatchiks. What Church do they REALLY belong to? The Church of Satan?
I guess that they think Canon 915 doesn’t REALLY mean what it states. The AB probably supports owebama too.
If you want to be a “Cafeteria Catholic,” there are plenty of “buffets” out there you can find to fit *your* beliefs.
(Probably even ones where you can burn the Bible & they’ll welcome you with open arms...)
““When in doubt, give it out,” Msgr. Pope said.”
IT? Has it really come down to this? IT? The Holy Eucharist is an “IT” that should just be given out like a Halloween trick or treat candy?
This extraordinarily offensive from a “Monsigneur.” What happened to the “IT” being the body and blood of Christ?
But a passage in the body of this article clarifies the matter and puts a whole different light on it:
Fr. Guarnizo may have been forcibly denied the opportunity to expand on his conversation. A commenter on Deacon Greg Kandra’s blog, who claimed to have been “in a meeting with Fr Marcel and heard the whole story,” wrote: “The woman in question brought her lesbian partner into the vesting sacristy just before the funeral Mass and made sure to introduce her partner to Fr. Marcel, introducing her as her ‘lover’. He told her then that she should not present herself for Communion.” A commenter claimed Barbara’s partner “blocked his way out of the sacristy when he attempted to speak with her further.”
If this is true, then he was completely and entirely justified in denying this woman communion. He told her privately not to, before the Mass began. And the bishop should be ashamed of himself. Maybe he hadn't heard these further details, but in that case he should not have spoken out like that without first investigating what happened.

How did the priest know she was a deviant? A militant perv forfeits "the right thing to do" by default.
I will allow that the priest could have simply done his duty without saying a word
Since when do blatant sinners, who are proud of their sin, have a “right” to Holy Communion?
Shame on the bishop for caving to the world’s perversion. It shows a lack of caring for the soul of those asking to commune. Those who commune unworthily, do so to their soul’s destruction. “Let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of the bread and drink of the cup. For he who eats and drinks in an unworthy manner eats and drinks judgment to himself, not discerning the Lord’s body.” ( I Corinthians 11:28-29)
Bishop Wuerl makes me hurl. He knows darn right well that Pelosi should not only be denied communion but should be publicly excommunicated. This priest was not only courageous, but absolutely in the right to deny this woman communion. Just from the conversation, one can tell this was a setup. LGBT do this all the time. Had she come to me, I would have told her..DO NOT APPRAOCH THE ALTAR FOR COMMUNION. Her obstinance and NOT ignorance are at the heart of her grave sin.
I’ve had to deny communion in several situations. Always under charitable circumstances. I’ve never had this sort of confronation though.
Deacon Francis
This tells us what chances there are that the DC deathists from Pelosi down be ever ex-communicated by the Washington diocese.
Reprimanded?! For preventing a person in a state of unrepentant sin from committing sacrilege??!!!
That bishop needs to be reprimanded.
