[Watertown Republican American] April 11, 2005--At around 10 a.m. Sunday, the Rev. Allyn Benedict's voice boomed from the pulpit. The rector of Christ Episcopal Church in Watertown was giving his sermon with a thunderous enthusiasm that elicited many an amen from the 50 or so gathered for a two-hour service. Sunday's service may be his last with the congregation because he may be defrocked as soon as Friday over his opposition to ordaining homesexual deacons and clergy.
