Temple in Kirtland, Ohio, where Eli McCann went on his first date with his future husband.My first date with my now husband, Skylar, was at theI had connected with him on a dating app because he had touched down at thefor a one-hour layover. He was living in Wisconsin at the time, and when I discovered this, I figured there was no way we’d ever actually meet each other.
I had stopped going to church a year or two before, so it was perhaps an odd thing that the next morning I found myself on an extended one-on-one tour of the Kirtland Temple led by an elderly man sporting a wizarding beard that ran down to his naval. I guess it seemed to me it would have been a shame to not pop by this place that had occupied hundreds of Sunday school conversations from my childhood, given that I was staying just one town over.
The next thing I knew, I found myself accompanying my tour guide as he belted all hundred or so verses of the hymn, his right hand resting on the piano, foot a-tapping, and openly weeping down his long white beard. It was sometime during this musical performance when it occurred to me that my attempt to fly to Ohio to go on a gay date with a man I had found on the internet had already gone very off the rails in the most surprising way possible.
