Episcopal Church Conclave Charts Unity Amid Debates
The 72nd General Convention of the Episcopal Church, at the Pennsylvania Convention Center, ended after days of debate on ecumenism and women’s ordination. A Concordat with the Lutheran church would share clergy and sacraments, while women’s ordination became mandatory for all dioceses. Archbishop George Carey urged unity within Anglicanism as Bishop Jack Iker opposed the ordination mandate.
