Father Lee Taylor, 44, and his partner Fabiano Da Silva Duarte, 45, received a blessing from the Church in Wales on Saturday (13 November). Father Lee said the service at St Collen’s Church in Llangollen, where he is priest-in-charge, was “a great day of celebration”. He told PinkNews: “It was very important and exciting to have reached this next step in our journey together. “We both felt that it was not only a day of rejoicing for us, but for many other same-sex couples of faith across Wales.”
