March 22, 2015  Church Ordains First Married Lesbian CoupleDays after America's largest Presbyterian denomination approved an amendment to its constitution changing its definition of marriage to include same-sex couples, a lesbian couple will be ordained as ministers Sunday at First & Central Presbyterian Church in Wilmington, Delaware. Kaci Clark-Porter and Holly, who married three years ago, will be the first-ever same-sex couple to be jointly ordained, according to USA Today, which says the denomination couldn't point to other examples. Both were raised in conservative Texas homes, divorced their husbands and came out in their 20s during seminary. "It wasn't until I started serving here at First & Central that I felt like I really became a pastor," WDDE quoted Clark-Porter as saying. "That I was really able to care for people. Because I finally cared for myself, and this community cared for me and accepted me, and accepted my relationship to Holly fully." Clark-Porter will now be the church's associate pastor, and Holly runs the Big Gay Church, which operates at First & Central.
