A Same Sex Marriage Liturgy

Author: 
The Revd. Dr. Conor Fegan

Rev Dr Conor Fegan has studied aspects of the relationship between LGBT+ people and the church, and here offers a liturgy which can be used now that different branches of the church offer same sex marriage ceremonies. He has opted not to create something experimental or ‘different’ but to craft a liturgy which places the couple seeking union firmly in the succession of marriages through the centuries.
