Switzerland legalises same-sex marriage

The Free Church of Norway maintains its traditional view that marriage is "God's good plan for cohabitation between one man and one woman.” The Synod decided so last week.

The Christ-Catholic Church in Switzerland has voted to open marriage to all, regardless of sexual orientation. Starting on July 1, same-sex couples can get married in the Old Catholic Church denomination, which is independent from the Roman Catholic Church.

Swedish priests remain free to refuse to perform gay marriages.
