House of Bishops

Those interested may read the text of a statement produced by ECUSA House of Bishops here. The main points: 1) they pledge not to consecrate any new bishops, regardless of their sexuality, until after GenCon 2006, 2) they pledge not to bless same sex unions or approve rite for such until at least after GenCon 2006, 3) they urge ECUSA's authorities to seriously consider whether or not to send representatives to ACC meetings in the future and, 4) they apologize for acting last year in the Robinson affair without sufficiently consulting with the world-wide Anglican Communion. It remains to be seen what all this will mean.
