Interview with Bishop Bill Atwood: Why the US needs orthodox bishops

[TitusOneNine] 14 Sep 2007--One hundred years ago, Western missionaries were sent to Africa to convert the heathen and spread the gospel of peace. But now the tide has turned, according to conservatives, after a bumper crop of US priests were consecrated in the heart of Africa this month. Their mission? To head back to the States and minister to Anglicans disillusioned with the increasingly liberal Episcopal Church which, they claim, tore the Communion asunder with the consecration of a gay bishop in 2003. Last week the Churches of Kenya, Uganda and Rwanda all consecrated their American ‘flying bishops’ on African soil ready to send them back to troubled traditionalist congregations in the US.
