Father Cutié to speak at St. Benedict's Church

From South Florida-

Father Alberto Cutié, the prominent former Catholic priest who made headlines in 2009 when he was spotted on the beach with a woman, will be visiting Plantation for a free talk.

On Sept. 14, Cutié will speak at St. Benedict's Episcopal Church about leaving the Catholic Church, an experience he recounted in his book "Dilemma." He will perform the liturgy and benediction at 7 p.m. and will give his talk at 7:30 p.m.

"Some of the issues he dealt with in his book, people have dealt with in this parish," the Rev. Robert Deshaies said. "Hearing him speak might help them find a place of resolution in their personal issues."

Cutié was a well-known Catholic priest in South Florida, appearing on television and radio. The spotlight fell on him for a very different reason, however, when photos surfaced of Cutié kissing a woman at the beach and in bars. He left the church in 2009 and married the woman, Ruhama Buni Canellis. The two have a 9-month-old daughter, Camila.
