This week's David Hahn Show opens with a story from Fr James Martin's ministry Outreach, which published an article by Alex Capecelatro recounting two meetings he and his partner had with Pope Leo, presenting themselves on both occasions as a "married couple." The first came in October and the second on 29 July at the Canticle of Peace in Castel Gandolfo, and on both occasions Capecelatro reports being greeted warmly by the Holy Father. Hahn argues that the pope's courtesy is being repurposed as something it was never meant to be, a pattern he traces back to Martin's own May headline, "Vatican listens to LGBTQ people: A major step forward," which framed the inclusion of testimony from two gay men in a Vatican synod report as institutional progress. Against that model, Hahn points to Courage International, the Catholic apostolate for those experiencing same-sex attraction, whose Five Goals of chastity, prayer and dedication, fellowship, support and good example, along with its sister apostolate EnCourage, aim to combine welcome with fidelity to Church teaching rather than treat the two as in tension.
