The Bishop of Catholic Diocese of Uyo His grace, Bishop John Ayah has finally reacted to the resignation of charismatic radio evangelist and founder of the Grace Family, Rev. Fr. Patrick Henry Edet from the clergy of the Catholic Church. Bishop Ayah announced the withdrawal of all privileges and dissociates the Catholic Church from the activities of Rev Fr. Edet as he forbade all Catholics from associating with him.

Rev Dr John Ayah, in the release which was read at St Patrick Catholic College, Afaha Inang ,Uyo and other parishes, implies that, any Catholic who attends his programs does so at his/her own risk while awaiting official reaction from the Pope Francis.

The Catholic Bishop of Uyo Diocese, Rev Dr John Ayah's message is dated 12 August, 2017.

A catechist of the Church said, all the comments on social media about the matter are misplaced and misleading as they don't know the gravity of the matter. You don't just quit the Priesthood of Catholic church like that.

His words, "Let those who make useless comments on social media continue,the Catholic church is a church guided by discipline and no form of rebellion of any kind shall be entertained. Even when Barr Enoidem resigned his appointment as a commissioner to contest election as legal adviser of PDP, he later returned to the cabinet because of course his resignation letter was rejected by his boss, Governor Udom Emmanuel and he returned to the cabinet until others were dissolved. So until the Pope accepts his resignation letter, he remains Rev. Fr. Patrick Edet. That is the cross he is bound to carry ,after all, he took an oath to serve the church perpetual", the catechist said.

Winter is coming.....

Ok

The Catholic faith is like the military.
Even if you wish to leave the military u have to get the ok from ur CO before u leave else it will treated as AWOL and subject to court martial and dishonorable discharge.

Same way the Catholic Priest has to wait for the Pope's ok before his resignation is final.

Okay

My signature tho

My advice to all those planing of leaving the Holy Catholic Church to open their own ministry in order to acquire wealth, please read: Matthew 7:21-23

To become a priest is not by force
He has every right to resign if he thinks he can't keep to his vows as a Catholic priest.
Rather than constituting nuisance.








Meanwhile
☀[color=#1e90ff]Today in History :[/color] August 14 1893 , France becomes the first country to introduce motor vehicle registration.

Maybe the former priest decided to be a real father.

I am not understanding

It's not by force to remain a Rev Fr.
It's his choice, whether Pope hears it or not, he has decided.

Enough of the drama already. Let the Church move on...

this church too get issues recently why Catholic.

this one pass me, meanwhile

You don't just quit the Priesthood of Catholic church like that. An oath to serve the church perpetual, the catechist said.

But a pope resigned and heaven did not fall

hmmmm

I am not a catholic but the Roman Catholic Church is the church which everybody is sure of that being business oriented. They have their flaws but greed and pride have taken over the priesthood and it members. Martin Luther King senior, started this rebellion now we have thousands of churches scattered all over the world with little souls winning to Christ.

I don't get it

Na by force to remain in catholic?

You think reporting him will make him come back to catholic?

He is man enough to make his own decisions

Tell Jesus too, he is out of catholic church

I don't care how anyone chooses to serve God
Catholic or pentecostal
White garment o
Unclad o
Head down, legs up

Just make heaven at last!
PEACE!

He looks gay.

Mologi:
Winter is coming.....

So it is a problem now for someone to start his own business?

.

Endtime priest

Lol

Serves him right! I wish pope can do this to this Ahiara people

so it's by force to remain a priest now SMH

Living in bondage.

Serve the church perpetual? I thought it was a service to God.
