Episcopal Head Comments Ahead of Critical Anglican Meeting

Despite the rifts leading up to a global Anglican meeting next week, the woman causing much of the controversy remains calm.

"She's unflappable," New York Bishop Mark Sisk said of Episcopal Church Presiding Bishop Katharine Jefferts Schori, according to USA Today.

Jefferts Schori, who was invested last year as leader of the Anglican Communion’s U.S. wing, will be attending next week's Primates meeting as the first and only female head among 38 primates. But not all invited bishops are willing to recognize her at the same Primates table because of her controversial stance on biblical faith and morality, some Global South Anglican leaders said.

Before her installment last November, Jefferts Schori had questioned Jesus Christ as being the only way to God and told the Associated Press that she does not believe that "one person can have the fullness of truth in him or herself." She also expressed her support for the consecration of homosexuals and the blessing of same-sex unions.
