Breakaway Niagara Anglican churches consider appealing order to share with diocese

[The Canadian Press] 7 May 2008--As three breakaway Ontario Anglican parishes decide whether to appeal an interim court ruling that requires they share their churches with the diocese, efforts are underway to figure out what to do about this Sunday's services.

Because Monday's ruling is so vastly different than that of an earlier judge, Anglican Network in Canada director Cheryl Chang said the breakaway group is seriously considering an appeal and has seven days to make a decision.

Justice Jane Milanetti's interim ruling, released Monday, is expected to remain in effect until the issue of who owns the church properties is resolved - a process that could take years.
