BRUNSWICK — The Brunswick congregation of the Unitarian Universalist Church voted unanimously to add its name to the Mainers United for Marriage list of churches supporting samesex marriage.
“We were excited and very happy,” the congregation’s minister, the Rev. Sylvia Stocker, said. The congregation has a history of “welcoming all people of marginalized sexual orientations and gender identities,” she said.
The congregation has organized a vigil to support marriage equality 5:30 to 6 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 28 on the Brunswick Green.
