bout 600 Church of England priests are meeting later to discuss the Pope’s offer for them to join their own section of the Roman Catholic Church.
The priests, from Catholic-minded Anglican group Forward in Faith, are unhappy about the way women bishops are being introduced into the CoE.
They will decide how to respond to Pope Benedict’s invitation which could allow them to retain some Anglican practices.
