The backlash is audible as two South African gay pastors tie the the knot in holy matrimony.
Paul Mwaura is a South African pastor of an Anglican Church, and he recently got married to John Maierepi. Maierepi is a Kenyan priest and again he is of the Anglican Church. Thankfully, the two were celebrated by their respective churches. Their congregations posted pictures of their wedding on Facebook and expressed joy at the union.
The wedding ceremony was held in South Africa with Mwaura’s church members in attendance. The couple was greeted with cheers and applause after saying “I do.” That said, that warm reception doesn’t mean everyone’s happy with the marriage. In fact, Mwaura’s and Maierepi’s wedding has been covered by several anti-LGBTQ religious news sources. Despite that negative perspective coming down on the couple, the pastors share a message of love.
“Sexual orientation is inborn, unchosen and unchangeable, don’t judge them please, touch not the anointed ones,” the two pastors said after being questioned on why they “chose” to be gay.
We hope more to hear about the story of Paul Mwaura and John Maierepi, and we hope their message of love reaches the ears of even the hateful and intolerant.
Their life their choice
This beats me. If you want to be gay, be gay and shut up about it, but going to the church to bless a union that Christianity has a rabid hatred for is flabbergasting. Anyway, God will address this nonsense in his appointed time.

@ak_eve please can you share the research? I would love to read it. 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
Yeah I agree with you @omoye Ohiku. I did a research on genetics specifically on that subject. It was quite convincing however there are many out there that are gay out of convenience or necessity or even curiosity. Those are the ones that flip often times.
