                    [Summary] => The Holy Father Pope Francis has allowed the blessing of same-sex couples. And Father Jaime Achacoso, a noted canon lawyer and priest, clarified that “the Pope is not blessing the union per se, but the persons caught up in that relationship (hence the provision that the blessing should not in any way resemble the marriage rite) to give them the strength to do what is right: either to break it up if possible, or at least keep it chaste (not sexual but just companionship).”

Our Gospel today picks-up from last week’s, during which Jesus read from a scroll of Isaiah, “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me . . . to bring glad tidings to the poor . . . liberty to captives . . . to let the oppressed go free” (Lk. 4:18).  This Sunday, Jesus concludes, “Today this Scripture passage is fulfilled in your hearing” (Lk. 4:21).
