The church I attend right now practices a Holy Kiss on the lips, but a previous church I attended goes on the cheek. My thoughts are that the cheek would be better, simply because these same churches are teaching against homosexuality. I would think Holy Kisses on the lips might promote that feeling in some members. I know for myself, I plan to reserve the lips only for my husband. If I do not even greet my mom, dad or other family with a kiss on the lips, but rather one on the cheek, why would I allow my Church family to greet me on the lips?
I have been told by some that the lips is the only place for a true kiss and that is why the Holy Kiss should be on the lips, but I don't know that I agree with that.
If anyone has any thoughts or comments on this subject I would be interested in hearing them as this concept is a fairly new one to me.
Blessings in Christ,
