A former
Catholic priest, Rev. Patrick Henry Edet, has fixed March 17 for his marriage
to his fiancée who he would unveil next week. Edet made the disclosure on
Tuesday during his Grace Family service.
The popular Uyo-based priest and radio preacher, while addressing his
radio audience on Planet 101.1FM, Uyo, said then that “the resignation marked
the beginning of ‘freedom’ for his spirit and soul”.
He said: “From today henceforth, I cease to be a Catholic priest, in my
spirit and in my soul. I forgive those who will criticise me, I live for God. I
seek freedom for my soul. As I leave, I leave smiling. I am so happy that I am
free.”
While expressing his joy, Edet said he should be addressed as Rev
Patrick Edet. Edet, who hosts a weekly Christian programme entitled: “Grace and
Inspiration,” on Planet 1010.1FM, Akwa Ibom State, added that there was no need
for him to continue with the Catholic Church because peace deserted him while
he was there.
He said after 11 long years, he strongly felt the need to leave, because
he was feeling boxed in and it was affecting his personal relationship with
God. He said leaving was the best thing, as he was now finally free.
