[Episcopal News Service] 24 Oct 2006--The Archbishop of Canterbury sent two bishops to investigate the situation in Recife and Brazil over the summer. He has yet to issue his report on the situation. Meanwhile TEC (USA) has by the presence of bishops and its report fully endorsed the IEAB Bishop at his investiture attended by 400 people including his 14 clergy. The Diocese of Recife with Bishop Cavalcanti has 32 clergy and one congregation alone 1000 people. There is a clear division and overlap here between a self-styled “liberation theology” diocese and a charismatic and evangelical diocese who hosted an international SOMA conference in 2005.
