Correction to this podcast from Deputy Denton-Trujillo: "I mentioned that DEPO was removed from the amended resolution coming to the floor from Committee 13, and it has been removed regarding making the Marriage Rites available to every parish for their Rector to implement (or not) in their parish (rather than letting that decision reside with the Bishops to allow the parishes in their Diocese to do these Rites); however, there is a matter of DEPO where Bishops who hold a theological position that does not embrace marriage for same sex couples, shall in the case of remarriage after divorce (and it is this situation only, per my understanding and reading of the resolution), invite another Bishop to oversee the consent process and all. That is the DEPO provision within this resolution."
