FOR EPISCOPALIANS IN THE KNOW ....

No one knows what the Executive Council is so: The Executive Council of the Episcopal Church (TEC) is an elected body representing the whole Church. In the course of the three years between convention, the Executive Council meets. Their duty is to carry out the programs and policies adopted by General Convention of the church – the major governing body of TEC.

They just meet in Dearborn, Michigan and passed a resolution concerning BO33

The most interesting part of the be it “resolveds” was: ”… it may inappropriately suggest that an additional qualification for the episcopacy has been imposed beyond those contained in the constitutions and canons of the church…”

This is such an obscure point for someone who knows nothing about this particular story but important for people seeking the full rights for all baptized persons within our church. And so, the story continues.
