It doesn't look like it will be anytime soon, but we will, eventually, get the language deleted from the Discipline.

My own pastor has signed a pledge that she will, if requested to do so, officiate at a same sex marriage ceremony. She did make that announcement to us during worship one Sunday, because she wanted us to know that, if she does so, she will be in peril of losing her credentials. Our church family will stand 100% behind her.
