From Central PA
Like many couples, Kate Harrigan and William Alford go to different churches Sunday mornings.
Unlike many couples, both wear clerical collars and officiate at services when they do.
She’s Canon Kate Harrigan, rector of St. Paul Episcopal Church of Harrisburg for 1½ years, dean of the Episcopal Diocesan School of Christian studies for 21 years and board member of the Episcopal seminary at Yale.
He’s the Rev. William Alford, rector of both St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church in Harrisburg and St. Andrew’s in the Valley, Susquehanna Township.
Three churches.
Two priests.
One marriage.
The Right Rev. Nathan D. Baxter, who heads the Episcopal Diocese of Central Pennsylvania with 66 parishes in 24 counties, called them “very dedicated pastors who model Christian marriage well.”
