Primates push U.S. on sexuality

[Anglican Journal] 2 April 2007--Primates of the Anglican Communion have given the U.S. Episcopal Church until Sept. 30 to “make an unequivocal common covenant” that its bishops will bar same-sex blessings in their churches and that it would not consecrate another gay bishop “unless some new consensus on this matter emerges” across the Anglican world.

Failure to comply would mean that “the relationship between the Episcopal Church and the Anglican Communion as a whole remain damaged at best, and this has consequences for the full participation of the church in the life of the Communion,” warned a communiqué issued by primates at the end of a tense meeting held Feb. 15-19 in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania.
