(2,574 posts)The Episcopal Church, in which I grew up and matured during the fifties & sixties, fought in the front lines for civil rights, women's rights, respect and inclusion for all and against an unjust draft and war. Bishop Curry and his Love Sermon was so fondly familiar to me as those I heard in the 50/60"s in all my Episcopal Churches from Texas, Tucson, Oakland, Upstate New York to Los Angeles. Later in my life the Episcopal Church in America has elected gay Bishops as well as women. Their message of love, respect, diversity,activism has never changed.
I just loved this wedding for so many reasons. Mainly because it represented the Union of BOTH Megan (a biracial American woman) and Harry (a British Royal) so stirringly and optimistically.
