An Episcopal chaplain has made history as the first transgender priest to preach at the historic National Cathedral in Washington. Rev. Dr. Cameron Partridge delivered a sermon as part of events marking LGBT pride month.

Rev. Dr. Cameron Partridge: “I am moved by how our decisions are calling us into a deeper awareness of the mystery of the human person, for at the end of the day, to respect the dignity of every human being, as we promise in our baptismal covenant, is to actively create space for the unfolding of our lifelong growth as members of Christ’s body.”
