Episcopal bishop withholds ordination of women in Washington
In Washington DC, Bishop William F. Creighton says he will not grant permission for five women to be ordained on Sept 7, but expects women to be ordained within 18 months. He blocks deacons from priesthood in the diocese and notes plans may move forward via an authorized path. Bishop George W Barrett, former Rochester bishop now in Santa Barbara, intends to ordain the five at St Stephen and the Incarnation. The Philadelphia ordinations previously ruled invalid, and St Stephen’s rector, Reverend William A. Wendt, was reprimanded for permitting women to function as priests there.
