A priest in Mexico has shocked his congregation with his love for fast cars and sexy women.

Father Jorge Manuel Guevara Corona, priest of the north-eastern town of Guadalupe, likes women, good cars, wrestling and strawberries, according to his Facebook profile.

The priest has created controversy with his comments on his profile, but he is unrepentant.

He started working in the parish a year ago and got off to a bad start when he shared a picture online of this sexy woman with the comment “Mmmmm, mamacita”.

His friends on Facebook responded by writing “you will never change” to which the priest replied “Amen”.

The priest also showed his admiration for his car, an Audi, when he posted a photo of him lying on it with the comment: “Happy forever.”

Raquel Patricio, one of his followers, asked: “Father, did you borrow this pretty car? I do not know how much a priest can earn but I know one or two and they are very humble and do not have the money for this kind of thing.”

The priest, who comes from the Mexican state of Guadalajara, wrote on his Facebook profile when he arrived at the new parish: “I thank wholeheartedly all my friends that are happy for me because I am in a new parish.

“Thank God I am here with them. God bless you always. I wait for you here whenever you want me. Happy Sunday to all”.

A local Catholic church official said: “We believe his love for women is an expression of God’s wonder in making them beautiful. He is still a celibate priest as his calling dictates.”
