Same Sex Marriage In The Episcopal Organization

from Stand Firm by Jackie

I wonder how many people in the pews actually know this and what the reaction would be if published in every Sunday bulletin across the country.

Other faiths throughout the country are moving toward same-sex recognition.

The Rev. Peter D'Angio, rector of St. Luke's Episcopal Church, said the Episcopal church ruled in 2009 to allow same-sex blessing ceremonies on a national level.

In states that legally recognize gay marriages, episcopal churches are allowed to perform the actual marriage ceremony when the bishop in that district gives the OK, he said.
