Wow, u don't sound like a Christian at all, you sound like someone that has been mentored by a Native Doctor

Read:
Luke 9:51-56
The disciples of Jesus asked him to call down fire on people, and Jesus rebuked and corrected his disciples, telling them not to behave like Elijah

I dare you to carry out any incantations they taught you in your current native doctor church

am just here smiling at your ignorance. Read your Bible, and stop behaving like a Native doctor mentee

Lol

It is better for him to be the officiating priest than best

So I have this very good friend of mine whom we've been very close friends right from childhood. While he went on to become a catholic priest, I went and studied in the university.

Now the problem is, my wedding is coming up soonest and I have plans of using him as my best man since we've known each other for long.

Does the Catholic church permits priests to be a bestman at a wedding ceremony?

Kindly move to FP for a wider view and opinions please
This your post get as e be.
First, your priest friend is in the best position to tell you if it is possible for him to be.

undecided

Yes I have checked my CIC.

Bigard or Bodija?

I didn’t say there is a law that prohibits. But they need the permission of their Bishops...NEED is the word, so no choice. I am speaking about the practicality and the norm. Have you checked the Code of Canon Law though?
