Atlanta Priest Goes to Drag Show

Pastor of the Shrine of the Immaculate Conception

ATLANTA (ChurchMilitant.com) - The pastor of a pro-homosexual parish is flaunting his attendance at a drag show in August.

Monsignor Henry Gracz, the pastor of the heavily pro-homosexual Shrine of the Immaculate Conception in Atlanta, posted on his Facebook that he attended a drag performance at "Lips" on Aug. 1.

The same month, Abp. Wilton Gregory appointed Gracz "spiritual director" to sex abuse victims despite the fact he is unapologetically pro-homosexual.

In June 2017, Gracz allowed Sr. Jeannine Gramick and Francis DeBernardo from the dissident New Ways Ministry to speak at the Shrine despite the fact they have both been censured by the Vatican for teaching contrary to the Catholic faith regarding homosexuality.

Members of the Shrine's LGBT outreach ministry have attended the Atlanta Pride parade. A pamphlet for the event tells people to "wear your Shrine T-shirt ... to show our unity."

LGBT activism has been encouraged in the archdiocese by Gregory who is allowing renowned homosexualist Jesuit, Fr. James Martin, to speak at the Shrine.

Shrine of the Immaculate Conception is the second oldest structure in downtown Atlanta, Georgia. Designed by local architect William H. Parkins, the cornerstone was laid September 1, 1869 by poet Abram Joseph Ryan. It was completed and dedicated in 1873 .

Father Ryan is generally considered the poet laureate of the Confederacy. Surprised that bit of history hasn't been expunged.

As someone who has on the order of 25 Confederate ancestors your remarks are insulting and demeaning.

One of the great strengths of the Catholic Church has always been that it was CATHOLIC...i.e. universal.

What holds true at the Vatican was also true in Madrid, Seoul, Los Angeles and Atlanta. No more apparently. Every Priest and Bishop looks to be off doing his own thing.

You are a truly mannerless boor and your presence does not enhance this site.

This is the last. It is said one never wins wrestling with a pig. One gets dirty and the pig just enjoys himself.
