Presbyterians elect activist as church moderator at assembly
The Associated Press reports Rev. John M. Fife, a human rights activist and Sanctuary Movement co founder, was elected moderator of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) on the assembly's second ballot amid financial strain and deep debate over abortion rights and ordination of homosexuals. Fife, from Tucson, previously convicted on conspiracy charges related to aiding refugees, vows to lead with a focus on faith driven response while opponents push for stronger anti abortion stances. The nine day General Assembly also considers a policy split on abortion with a majority supportive but allowing government regulation in certain cases.
