An Igbo g*y man, Innocent Ndubuisi Okechukwu, marries his male lover, wearing Igbo attire in the church, as officiated by a reverend father.
1. The black man is a Nigerian by name Innocent Ndubuisi Okechukwu. He is a composer and pianist with a significant body of work and academic study in music.
2. He started in a Catholic minor seminary (secondary school) and sang/played music there. He never went to major seminary.
3. The white man is called Greg. He is a chorister and a lector (reader) in Episcopal Church.
4. The “wedding” took place in St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church in Downers Grove, Illinois (USA).
5. The Episcopal Church belongs to the global Anglican Communion, a fellowship of churches worldwide that recognizes the Archbishop of Canterbury for unity. As an Episcopal church, St. Andrew’s shares this Anglican heritage and connection to the broader communion.
6. The minister is Rev. Gregg Morris. He is the rector (senior minister) of that parish.
7. The Episcopal Church does permit clergy to officiate same-s*x marriages, and the denomination has authorized religious weddings for g*y couples.
8. I hope this clarification helps. Thanks for your attention!
