[Sydney Morning Herald] 28 May 2008--Almost a third of the world's Anglican Bishops have registered to attend a rival gathering of Anglican leaders set up in response to the church's stance on homosexuality.

Sydney Archbishop Peter Jensen is one of the key movers in setting up the rival gathering, held a month before the Lambeth Conference - the once-a-decade worldwide assembly of Anglicans at Canterbury, England.

More than 1000 people from 17 provinces in the Anglican Communion have registered for the Global Anglican Future Conference, to be held in Jerusalem from June 22 to 29.
