Row over Schori's Primates Statement

http://www.standfirminfaith.com/index.php/site/article/2706/

[Stand Firm] 31 Mar 2007--US Presiding Bishop Katharine Jefferts Schori has qualified her support for the primates’ Dar es Salaam communiqué, telling reporters her endorsement did not connote agreement, but signified her intention to act as the primates’ messenger to the US House of Bishops.

In a March 21 conference call with reporters, Bishop Jefferts Schori said she backed the US House of Bishops’ decision to reject the pastoral council. Asked whether this support served to revoke her signature on the primates’ communiqué, she responded that she had not signed the Feb 19 Dar es Salaam statement.
