In her Feb. 12 article about the Lutheran pastor who will be ordained a Roman Catholic priest, Lola Smallwood states, “Although not many women can say they are married to a priest . . . “

I know lots of women who are married to priests.

I know some men who are married to priests.

I even know some priests who are married to other priests. As a matter of fact I’m married to a priest myself.

The Episcopal Church has always ordained both single and married people to the priesthood, thus celebrating the God-given nature of healthy human sexuality.
