“Marriage for papers” – Angry pastor refuses to bless marriage because groom entered Canada illegally

An angry pastor left a confused congregant in the church auditorium after leaving angrily and refusing to bless a couple’s marriage.

The pastor, who is said to be the bride’s father, declined to pronounce his blessing on the union because the groom had no valid documents to marry his daughter in Canada.

The pastor questioned the man about his immigration history and legal documents while the ceremony was still in progress.

The man of God left the platform after the groom finished speaking, kissed the bride on the cheek, and declared that he would not bless the union.

He then went on to issue a severe warning and inform the congregation that the groom had entered Canada unlawfully and would not officiate at a wedding for any other reason.

As a man of God and the father of the bride, he did not agree with the man’s attempt to use marriage as a means of obtaining Canadian citizenship.
