At dual conventions held today in Chicago and Peoria, the Episcopal Diocese of
Chicago and the remnant Episcopalians in Quincy (who called themselves a
"diocese" for purposes of the ongoing litigation over whether the actual Diocese
of Quincy could leave the Episcopal Church [USA]) have
voted
to combine into a single Diocese of Chicago. The actual merger will not take
place until General Convention meets, probably two years from now, to approve it
pursuant to
Article V
of the Constitution.

Curmudgeon's Note: See what a wonderful
"hierarchy" ECUSA claims to be! It is supposedly "governed and ruled" by a body
which meets together once every three years for just 8 days, and then dissolves
-- never to assemble again. Eight days out of 365 x 3 = 1,095 days (1,096 if one
year is a leap year), or less than 1% of the time (to be exact, 0.73%). It's
rather like Scotland saying it was "governed" by the village of Brigadoon.)
