Who is Evans David Gliwitzki?

Evans David Gliwitzki is the first Spanish Catholic priest to be married. He was ordained on August 21, 2005 in La Laguna, Tenerife. The ordination was taken by bishop Felipe Fernandez.

Gliwitzki was born in Zimbabwe and was ordained an Anglican minister in 1984. His ordination had the full support of the Catholic Church as a special case for unity between churches, and does not signal a change in Catholic policy towards priestly celibacy. Such cases have also occurred in Britain, but this was a first for Spain.

Gliwitzki is married with two daughters.
