[Christian News Wire] 24 Mar 2007--The House of Bishops met for their annual spring retreat in Texas, on March 16–21. It adopted a resolution conveying the mind of the House. Both that statement and the House's letter to the Episcopal Church reflect a strongly negative disposition towards the February communiqué issued by leaders of Anglican Communion provinces, who are called "primates." At the same time, the House did not directly address the primates' call for the Episcopal Church to end both all authorizations of same-sex blessings and all consents to the consecration of bishops in a same-sex relationship. They instead chose to delay discussion until their September meeting, after the Episcopal Church holds church-wide conversations on these issues - just a short period of time before the primates' September 30 deadline or the House's response.
