Dallas church overflows with ceremony featuring same-sex couples' vow renewals

From Dallas-

Bryant Surley-Strong was skeptical he’d ever see the day when he could get married in his own church.
“I know the congregation was always supportive, but it just wasn’t allowed,” Surley-Strong said.
But those worries are gone — forever — after he and his husband and 14 other same-sex couples who were originally married outside the church renewed their vows in a boisterous gathering at Episcopal Church of the Transfiguration.
“We’re just doing a little something tonight, no big deal,” the Rev. Casey Shobe told the hundreds who packed the sanctuary at the Far North Dallas Church.
