....Christ.
An Indiana school teacher married Jesus Christ over the weekend, becoming a consecrated virgin in an elaborate white wedding. Jessica Hayes, a 38-year-old theology teacher, donned a long white dress and lace veil while tying the knot before hundreds of guests at the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception in Fort Wayne Saturday. Standing at the altar as a bride of Christ, she vowed a life of virginity and was given a ring, as well as a book of daily prayers. "I had been praying about it for years, trying to seek God's will for my life and not really finding it in any of the paths that I sought before," she told WANE after the ceremony was complete. Hayes said she made her decision after realizing that it gives her the best of both worlds. As a consecrated virgin, she will be able to live, teach and serve God among the public and not in a convent like most nuns. At the same time she's committed 100% to the church, serving it "in whatever capacity is needed and whatever capacity my own gifts are available form," she said. That direction will come from the diocesan Bishop. http://tinyurl.com/pgj2rwo - - - I wonder if her new husband broke the glass. |
