Is it true some Christian churches will marry same-sex couples?

No. Marriage is defined as the union between a man and a woman and therefore by definition a gay couple cannot be 'married' either in church or out.However, in the Uk, for example, there are available civil partnerships - which are the homosexual equivalents, in law, of a traditional marriage. I know of no equivalent in any official Christian Church in the UK or anywhere else.However, depending upon the diocesan bishop's views, and the views and integrity of the local priest, some more 'progressive' parish priests have offered gay couples a blessing service - usually a service after a civil ceremony. In the UK this has happened on several occasions, although it is still very controvertial in some areas.Yes. Metropolitan Community Churches and Unitarian Fellowships will marry same sex couples.

What does the Church say about same-sex marriage?

There is a full spectrum from full acceptance to complete rejection of same-sex marriage among Christian churches, although the general trend is towards rejection.A few Christian churches will permit their clergy to perform a same-sex wedding in the church, but most will not. Some churches will ordain clergy who are parties to a same-sex marriage, but most will not. Some churches will permit a special blessing ceremony for a same-sex couple who have married civilly, but many will not. Some churches will refuse recognize same-sex unions of any kind, but still permit same-sex couples to participate fully in the liturgy.Some churches are generally accepting of gay persons, but only with the understanding that they are to remain celibate. Some churches exclude (excommunicate, shun, etc.) anyone who represents that they are in a relationship with someone of the same sex. Some churches exclude anyone who identifies as gay. Some churches will even exclude anyone who is suspected of being gay or lesbian.
