Bishop Slattery supports amendment to marriage rite
New York August 25 The Right Reverend Charles J Slattery bishop of Massachusetts and chair of the joint commission on prayerbook revision responded to a protest by Bishop Meake Johnson of Coleraine against removing the word obey from Episcopal marriage ceremonies. Slattery said the amendment, likely to be ratified at the October General Conference in New Orleans, aims to simplify and clarify the rite. He argues the prom ise and espousal are the same for both partners and that removing obey strengthens the mutual nature of marriage by eliminating a mandatory expression.
