[Magdalen] Baptism refused...

[Grace Cangialosi]

This has been all over FB for the past couple of days, and Episcopal Cafe leads with it today. The Dean of a cathedral in Central Florida cancelled a baptism three days before it was to take place--after friends and family had already flown in. The reason? The baby has two fathers, both members there.

Now, after being swamped with letters, phone calls and generally bad press, the Dean says it was all a misunderstanding and is asking everyone to hold their comments and judgments until after he has met with the family. He also said the Bishop was involved in the decision--Bishop says he knew nothing about it until he saw it on FB...........

Story is on Episcopal Cafe.
