Gio Benitez, an openly gay ABC News anchor  has joined the Roman Catholic Church and reaffirmed his faith alongside his ‘husband’ Tommy DiDario

The ‘church that never changes’ is going through something that can only be called a schism, one that threatens to blow the 1,700-year old Roman Catholic corporation to smithereens. Of course, the seeds of this brewing battle were planted by Pope Francis in his relentless pursuit to bring the entire LGBQ including the ‘T’ Movement into the Roman harlot. He did a pretty good job, too.

“And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.” Revelation 13:6 (KJB)

Benitez said “Divine love was in me all along, always whispering guidance, gently reaching out with arms wide open, and like Michelangelo’s Creation of Adam, patiently waiting for me to reach back out and embrace the greatest mystery”. Is that true? Not according to the Bible, it’s not. Divine love is found in the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ on the third day according to the scripture. Anything else is a cheap counterfeit, including your feelings. Did Jesus shed His blood on the cross to save Gio Benitez? Sure He did. But Jesus would never confirm someone in their sins. Schism be damned, the Roman Catholic Church will fully accept the LGBTQ Movement, and you can quote me on that.

Openly Gay ABC News Anchor Gio Benitez Joins Catholic Church with Confirmation Mass

FROM YAHOO! NEWS: The video taken at the Church of St. Paul the Apostle in New York City captured Benitez’s confirmation mass while a hymn was sung. Benitez shared his religious journey in the caption, stating how Pope Francis’ death in April 2025 led him to this moment. The 40-year-old explained, “Six months ago, the death of a humble pope unexpectedly took me on a journey that was a lifetime in the making.”

“Father James Martin was on GMA speaking about Pope Francis’ legacy of inclusivity,” he continued. “His words struck me. It was the first time I had seen a Catholic priest speaking in such a beautiful way about LGBTQ people.” Benitez is specifically referring to Martin’s words that claimed Pope Francis told him to “continue his ministry in peace” in regards to Catholics who are also a part of the LGBTQ+ community. Martin also referenced Pope Francis’ famous quote, “Who am I to judge?” when the late pope was asked about gay priests.

Martin’s message impacted Benitez as he recalled Christianity’s role in his life: “I had received my Christian baptism with my mom 25 years ago when I was 15. In secret, that nagging question persisted: if God created me, how could he not love me?” The question followed him into his young adulthood as he “went on to study religion in college, searching for proof of God. But maybe I was just searching for proof of God’s love.”

The news personality then shared how he found God’s love at St. Paul’s, saying that during his first visit in May, Pastor Eric Andrews “preached on three simple words spoken by Christ: Love. One. Another. ‘When we’re able to love and love freely and openly — and love ourselves as well — we are a long ways down the road to fulfilling the Kingdom of God.’”

Benitez found the answer to his question, writing, “It turns out proof of God’s love wasn’t in the books or lecture halls, or even the amount of years I spent studying.” He furthered,  “That divine love was in me all along, always whispering guidance, gently reaching out with arms wide open, and like Michelangelo’s Creation of Adam, patiently waiting for me to reach back out and embrace the greatest mystery.” READ MORE
