Presbyterian Minister Rev Dr Katherine Meyer has been formally rebuked for participating in the RTE Pride Service run by Amach le Dia.
As Pastor Steve Ames says ‘It seems that mainline Christian denominations in Ireland are intent on making LGBT+ Christians feel unwelcome…Thankfully, there are a few courageous ministers such as Reverend Meyer who are actually trying to extend the hand of friendship towards LGBT people of faith in spite of the church’s ‘official position’
Vice Chairperson of Amach le Dia, Rev Teagan MacAodhagáin, comments ‘Any suggestion that a widely respected and honourable minister, like Reverend Dr Katherine Meyer, would receive such a backlash for attending a church service demonstrates the profound and piteous need for Amach Le Dia to exist to provide a place for people not accepted within the wider church community.’
The Presbyterian Church in Ireland says it got complaints about Rev Dr Katherine Meyer’s involvement.
