US Bishops asked to find peace
Webmaster | 29 August 2006
The symbolic leader of world Anglicanism, Archbishop Rowan Williams, has asked key group of American bishops to meet in New York next month to patch up the looming split in the US church over homosexuality.
The gathering is part of a broad effort by Rowan Williams to preserve the global Anglican fellowship.
The Anglican Communion Office in London announced the summit in a brief news release, but did not give specific details about the date and location.
US web columnist David Virtue says the published invitee list represents all streams and extremes in the Episcopal Church. The list includes two conservatives: Bishop Jack Iker of Fort Worth and Pittsburgh Bishop Robert Duncan, head of the Anglican Communion Network.
It is expected the meeting will include representives of all 10 conservative US dioceses considering breaking from the national church over the 2003 consecration of a practising gay bishop.
