FULL TITLE: Man proposes to his boyfriend in Texas Methodist Church that prohibits gay marriage - and gets a standing ovation from the congregation
A Texas man gave his boyfriend a proposal to remember when he got down on one knee in front of the entire congregation at their local Methodist Church – receiving a standing ovation in the process.
Trevor Harper, 36, and Davis Covin, 30, who live in Austin, have been dating since 2006 and have been proud and active members of the First United Methodist Church of Austin for the past two years.
Mr Harper said the support they have received has been a huge blessing to their relationship, especially as a gay couple in Texas. 'That church has been, for us, really the first time we have really been able to live out loud as a couple,' he told BuzzFeed News.

Gross!
Less Methodist and more Austin. They will likely get married in a local Episcopalian building.
Forgot, I thought he’d get...his ass beat, and excommunicated from the church. And yes, make that approving congregation watch an hour or two of gay porn, then take their temperature.
What drama queens, always having to be the center of attention.
1) this happened in Austin, which is a cesspool of liberalism.
2) this happened in a United Methodist church, which is a cesspool of liberal theology. they’ve taken all of the teachings of Christ out of Christianity and replaced them with namby-pamby post-modern “liberal feel goodisms”.
Gross.
I’m proudly not Methodist since 1980.

These people have no respect for God or His church. Really a barf.
I bet they think Trump is the arrogant one.
This kind of Godlessness is why my husband and I left the Methodist Church years ago.
....shows the sad degeneracy and evil of the times, and the unsafe and dangerous condition the people of God are in....it’s going to get worse.
The Texas Methodist Church has “evolved”, preaching the gospel of perversity.
.....”This kind of Godlessness is why my husband and I left the Methodist Church years ago”....
This kind of vileness is why the true church will in time go underground....it will not be tolerated.
The sick now demand we àffirm they are well.
queers will be queers.
especially in Austin
The queerdom capital of Texas. What a blight on the Great State of Texas
Abominable.
A church in name only.
