Father David Waller, of St Saviour’s CofE Church, in Markhouse Road, Walthamstow, said the announcement that … [an Episcopal leader in maryland] could become the denomination’s first openly gay female bishop does not sit comfortably with all members of the Anglican church.
The Reverend Rowan Williams, Archbishop of Canterbury and head of the Church of England, has urged the Episcopal Church USA not to allow her ordination.
Fr Waller said: “The issue about how the Anglican community relates to one another and to others is important.
“The more it fragments, the more it becomes a different church. All these divisions make it difficult to engage in conversations with other churches. If Anglicans have such a broad spectrum, their identity can become blurred.”
