Egyptian Anglican Bishop Learns Bitter Lesson from Windsor Process

[Virtue Online] 24 Mar 2008--A Middle East Anglican bishop and an Australian Archbishop believe that the Windsor Process and The Episcopal Church's sexual innovations have made them lose faith in the Anglican Communion resulting in the Sydney leader withdrawing himself and his bishops from attending the Lambeth Conference.

Egyptian Bishop Mouneer Anis got a rude awakening when he attended the Joint Standing Committee (JSC) in London recently and learned, to his amazement, that the communion is not in a state of crisis and that the covenant process could carry on till 2015 without resolution.

While Mouneer was extremely critical of the ecclesiastical politics going on within the inner sanctums of the Anglican Communion, the Archbishop of Sydney, Dr. Peter F. Jensen, took a more aggressive posture and ripped the Episcopal Church saying repentance has not happened in The Episcopal Church and he was withdrawing his bishops from attending the Lambeth Conference.
