The church welcomes and blesses homosexuals, it seems, but not homosexual unions.  

There appears to be two people who speak for God. One is the pope and other other is Don Lemon. The two disagree. Here's Lemon's take on the matter.

The Vatican’s orthodoxy office, the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, issued a formal response to a question about whether Catholic clergy have the authority to bless gay unions. The answer, contained in a two-page explanation published in seven languages and approved by Pope Francis, was “negative.”

The note distinguished between the church’s welcoming and blessing of gay people, which it upheld, but not their unions. It argued that such unions are not part of God’s plan and that any sacramental recognition of them could be confused with marriage.
