Correct - by participating in the ceremony, "the congregation" is blessed as
a single entity. Enemies are not part of "our congregation". If you could
curse your enemies easily than the Kingdom of War would be a
magically-blasted wasteland (okay, magically blasted by the Loskalmi, rather
than the KingdomofWarians)
If a Liturgists wanted to bless someone *not* at the ceremony, such as "our
boys in the field", then multiple targets *do* apply unless there is some
major connection between the Liturgist and the "boys in the field".
