It was the Facebook pictures that got her in trouble.
As Amanda Garber stood at the front of the hall, preparing to marry two of her best friends, she knew sheâd face discipline. And when she saw the pictures pop up on Facebook on her drive home, she knew she might lose her job.Â
Garber is an ordained United Methodist Church (UMC) reverend, and she was marrying two women.Â
It was freezing cold for November at the Frontier Culture Museum, yet Garber was struck by the beauty of the surrounding mountains and of the event unfolding in front of her â and that eventâs significance. âYouâve enabled me to access a courage I didnât even know existed within me,â she said to the two women standing in front of her, Lindsay and Brittany Caine-Conley.Â
