He didn&#8217;t purchase that horse, but he did come home with Angelo. The boy was the first child to come live in their home in South Central Kentucky.<\/p>\n<p class=\"articles\">&#8230;The couple spends time in service to their church, Christ the Healer, in Edmonton, Ky. Reed serves as a Eucharistic Minister for that congregation. The small Catholic church is the spiritual home for less than 30 families.<\/p>\n<p class=\"articles\">&quot;We are out and open with our church congregation,&quot; Reed said.

That sinful behavior is overlooked because they &quot;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.splendoroftruth.com\/cgi-bin\/mt.cgi?__mode=view&#038;_type=entry&#038;blog_id=1&#038;id=5363&#038;saved_changes=1\">Love each other<\/a>.&quot; John the Baptist wasn&#8217;t afraid to mention Herod&#8217;s wrongful marriage relationship. Of course the consequence of that might not be a good example. When people in the Church look the other way over gravely sinful situations they are removing a channel of repentance. One of the spiritual acts of mercy is to rebuke the sinner when the occasion prudently warrants it . It is not mercy to ignore sin under the guise of tolerance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a an article about a homosexual couple with eight adopted children.
