Newtown 'Gay Mass'

The Catholic Church clearly teaches that the practice of homosexuality is wrong. This does not mean however that one can reject people who are in error but rather calls out of charity to help them. One must help a person who is living a life of sin in every way possible for the good of their soul.

Every Friday night at 8pm there is a 'Gay Mass' at St. Joseph's Catholic Church Newtown. If you would like to see more about the Mass take a look at http://www.gaycatholic.com.au/ to view the Acceptance group home page.

Catholic Taking Action gathers outside St. Joseph's Catholic Church Newtown each Friday night from 7.45pm to pray for those who attend the Mass, especially for the priest.

When looking at Canon 1752 (1983 Code of Canon Law) one sees the real reason for Catholic Action: '...the salvation of souls, which must always be the supreme law in the Church, is to be kept before one's eyes.'
