Fort Worth diocese leaves Episcopal church
Nov 21, 2006

FORT WORTH, SK, United States (UPI) -- The Episcopal diocese of Fort Worth has withdrawn from the national denomination in the culmination of years of theological estrangement.

Meeting in its 24th annual convention on Nov. 17-18, the diocese adopted four resolutions, including one that withdraws the diocese`s consent to membership in Province VII of the Episcopal Church, and another that provides a mechanism for parishes to remove themselves from membership in the conservative Network of Anglican Communion Dioceses and Parishes, also known as the Anglican Communion Network, Episcopal News Service said Tuesday.
