The spiritual head of the worldwide Anglican Church has called for a meeting to be held with six American Episcopal bishops next month, in efforts to reconcile the Church’s divisions over homosexuality.

The Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr Rowan Williams, has called for the meeting to take place in New York in September, to offer renewed hope that the Anglican Communion can remain united despite continued talks of a schism over whether Biblical authority calls homosexuality sin.

The Anglican Communion Office in London announced the summit in a brief news release Friday, but did not give any specific details about the date and location.

The Episcopal Church USA is the American-branch of the Anglican Church, and the six representatives called to the meeting by Dr Williams, will correspond to the range of beliefs currently existing across the American Church.
