Back this summer The Rev. Dr. Martin Dudley became somewhat of a celebrity after it was reported that he had officiated at a formal liturgy in the Diocese of London blessing the partnership of two men. In the resulting furor an investigation was promised. Those findings have now been released and a letter of regret has been written.
Bennett grew up in the Episcopal church. She sang in the choir. She was married in one and baptized her five children there. Her mother’s ashes are buried under a tree outside an Episcopal church in Massachusetts. But being openly gay now in the Colorado diocese, she says, is like being given “half-a-loaf acceptance.” Gays are offered some sacraments but not others.
Sudanese are following the election at least as closely as Americans.

Now, he who follows sees the back.
