Catholic Priest Marries a Beautiful Wife
In the Catholic tradition, priests are supposed to commit to a life of celibacy. Meaning they ought not to marry or engage in sexual pleasures, but a Man who has carried Water and Wine knows which one is heavier.
The most Reverend Father Edwin Gathang’i Waiguru has now joined a splinter group, known as the Catholic Charismatic church as a result of he being pulled out of a generational calling to be a priest by a woman.
Bishop Patrick Mulau of the Kirinyaga Charismatic Church conducted the wedding ceremony on Sunday in Kiambu country, just north of the capital, Nairobi.
Standing next to his bride, Margaret Wanjira Githui, Father Waiguru said “it is possible to serve God and have a family and have a lovely wife”.
“God did not make a mistake when he created a man and a woman and He said it is not good for somebody to be alone.”
Father Waiguru said after being sent to preach in North and South America, he felt the need to marry and have a family.
When he returned to Kenya, he decided to marry in a traditional ceremony. The couple was blessed with two children.
He was ordained again as a Charismatic priest and also solemnized his marriage. He said he can now say he has lived to his calling of priesthood.
“I am very happy. To my wife, I promise to love you always,” he said.
Hundreds of the couple’s family and friends went to witness the unusual ceremony, NTV reports.
