Divorce Canon Adopted by Episcopal Conference in San Francisco
The General Conference of the Protestant Episcopal Church will consider three canons on marriage and divorce. One canon defines matrimony, another requires ministers to record marriages and vet applicants, and the third bars remarried divorced persons from church rites unless penitent. The measures aim to curb illegal unions and remarrying while a former spouse is alive, with a readmission path by penitence or deathbed repentance. The committee of twelve, mostly clergy and laymen, met secretly at Trinity Chapel and drafted the provisions.
