Gay Marriage At My CHURCH?
Massachusetts just ruled in favor of gay marriage and our church issued an "open and affirming" statement last year that the congregation supported in a nearly unanimous vote.HOWEVER, what's it like when it happens in your back yard or your own church. Will we see a NIMBY backlash? Or should I say NIMC (Not In My Church!) backlash? I whispered to someone in the pew next to me, last year after the vote, "Do some of the older folks realize this means we'll be having same sex weddings in this very room?"
They may know sooner than later. I'm all in favor of it. It's a beautiful church and would be a great church for gay weddings.
