Father Gleeson said despite continual “exhortations” to get the jab from Archbishop Fisher the church was facing some vaccine resistance.
“There are some priests who are saying no, I am not going to be vaccinated,” Father Gleeson said on Doogue’s podcast.
Father Gleeson said while the church respected the individual freedoms around vaccination they were faced with a dilemma.
Due to the church not being a corporation it does not have the power to fire or move priests who want to continue hosting mass while they refuse to get vaccinated.
As a Catholic myself, I urge these priests to RESIST. You are on God's side. The vast majority of Catholics are good. We have been deceived for a long time by our leadership. Much like the US, come to think about it. Having corrupt leadership doesn't make you a bad person. Not resisting it when it is evident DOES.
GOD BLESS YOU, BROTHERS!
