A priest says he was fired as director of Seton Hall University’s campus ministry because of a pro-LGBT Facebook post.
Rev. Warren Hall took to Twitter Friday saying “I’ve been fired from SHU for posting a pic on FB supporting LGBT ‘NO H8.’ I’m sorry it was met with this response. I’ll miss my work here.”
A petition started by students demanding Hall’s reinstatement has since received over 600 signatures.
“Father Hall is a well-loved member of the Seton Hall community, and much of the student body is shocked and saddened by this decision,” said student Ethan Kraft.
