Primates take first step to implement Windsor

[The Church of England Newspaper] February 24, 2005--Leaders from the Global South were determined to push for a call of repentance from the American Church, but Dr Williams, and the Irish Primate, Archbishop Eames, who is hosting the meeting in Northern Ireland, have urged for the Windsor Report to be allowed to take effect. Leaders from the liberal provinces have defended their autonomy, but Archbishop Williams and Eames have argued for the need for mechanisms of securing unity to be put in place. They have pushed for the Council of Advice to be established and discussed plans for a Covenant, a move to which liberals are strongly opposed.

The Windor Report if adopted is a step toward moving the Anglican Communion further away from the Bible and its teaching on human sexuality.
