Priest refuses communion to long-term church-goer because she\u2019s gay<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n

A diocese in Michigan, US, is backing one of its priests after he decided to stop offering communion to one of his parishioners because she is in a same-sex<\/a> marriage.<\/p>\n

The woman<\/a> in question is Sara Smolenski, a judge with the 63rd District Court in Grand Rapids, MI.<\/p>\n

She has attended the same church in the city, St Stephen\u2019s Catholic Church, for over six decades. Her parents married in the church and she was later baptized there.<\/p>\n

Smolenski, a lesbian<\/a>, married her wife in 2017. They had been together 27 years, and because of Smolenski\u2019s position, her marriage made local news.<\/p>\n

She says since marrying she has attended St Stephen\u2019s but has also been to other churches \u2013 all of whom have welcomed her for communion. It\u2019s during this holy sacrament, the culmination of the mass, that Catholics believe they receive the body and blood of Christ.<\/p>\n

Then, last Saturday, the church\u2019s priest, Father Scott Nolan, called Smolenski on the phone and told her she would not be allowed to receive communion anymore. Nolan has been at the church for approximately three years.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Smolenski says Nolan was aware of her sexuality and has given her communion before, leaving her particularly confused by the decision.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhy now? And why me?\u201d she said in an interview with MLive<\/a>.<\/p>\n

According to Nolan in his call<\/a>, it\u2019s all down to Smolenski\u2019s marriage.<\/p>\n

Smolenski told WOOD TV 8<\/a>, \u201cI try to be a good and faithful servant to our Lord Jesus Christ. My faith is a huge part of who I am, but it is the church that made that faith, the very church where he is taking a stance and saying ho-ho, not you.\u201d<\/p>\n

The priest told the same news channel he was just following through on, \u201cwhat all of the popes who have ever said something about the emergent family have said up to and including Pope Francis<\/a>,\u201d. In other words, you have to respect Catholic teachings if you want to receive communion.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

According to another parishioner, it\u2019s not the first time he\u2019s done this. Kelly Shadoens told WGVU News<\/a>, \u201cHe singled out a same-sex<\/a> couple<\/a> last, late last January and denied them communion at a mass, in front of their daughter with no prewarning.\u201d<\/p>\n

Now, Nolan\u2019s local diocese, on behalf of bishop Bishop David John Walkowiak, has issued a statement<\/a> backing his decision.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

\u201cWe appreciate Judge Sara Smolenski\u2019s service to the community. We are grateful for her past generosity. These facts are not at issue in this matter.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs Pope Francis explains in Amoris Laetitia, \u2018The Eucharist demands that we be members of the one body of the Church. Those who approach the Body and Blood of Christ may not wound that same Body by creating scandalous distinctions and divisions among its members.\u2019 Lifelong Catholics would surely be aware of this.\u201d<\/p>\n

It goes on to say, \u201cFather Scott Nolan, pastor of St. Stephen Parish, has dedicated his priesthood to bringing people closer to Jesus Christ.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

\u201cPart of his duty in pursuing that end is to teach the truth as taught by the Catholic Church, and to help it take root and grow in his parish. Mercy is essential to that process, but so are humility and conversion on the part of anyone seeking to live<\/a> an authentically Catholic Christian life.<\/p>\n

\u201cFather Nolan approached Judge Smolenski privately. Subsequent media reports do not change the appropriateness of his action, which the diocese supports.\u201d<\/p>\n
