Episcopal Church Opens Doors To Women Priests
In Minneapolis the Episcopal Church narrowly approved ordaining women as priests, a move seen as divisive within its 114 dioceses and across the Anglican world. Some clergy predict church conflicts or legal challenges if bishops refuse ordinations, while Catholic observers and other Anglicans weigh possible impacts on acceptance of women priests in related churches. The decision follows earlier irregular ordinations of women in 1974 75 and signals ongoing debate.
