I am a #retired #churchofengland #priest , now finding life is as full as ever, and enjoying it all. I am #gay , and was the first CofE priest to marry my same-sex partner in 2014. This caused a bit of a stir about which you can read, if I interested on my #Wikipedia page. I have a large family from a previous marriage, and spend a lot of time keeping up with them and my #grandchildren , and my husband’s family. Lots more to me than this which I will add to this.

I've never heard this before. I assume they do this for decorum sake. But is it legal? I didn't think we had any room to mess with the words of banns. #clergy #churchofengland #nichetoot

156 followers · 554 posts · Server ohai.socialAn interesting article by Canon Judith Maltby on how the Doctrine of Marriage in the #ChurchofEngland has changed in the last century. It hints that the very vocal, but minority of, opponents of blessings of same-sex unions in church might find themselves on the wrong side of the debate.
