Anglican Council Backs ‘Clear Warning’ to Schori & Rowan Williams

The American Anglican Council (AAC) has praised the recent statement from the Global South Steering Committee urging The Episcopal Church (TEC) to repent and change to restore true communion to the worldwide Anglican Churches.

The statement is "a clear warning to both Presiding Bishop Schori and Archbishop Williams," said AAC President and CEO the Rev Canon David C. Anderson.

"The Global South and their 40 million congregants refuse to sit by and watch The Episcopal Church (TEC) defy Communion agreements and legally persecute those US parishes that wish to remain faithful to the Gospel and church teaching," Anderson added.

The Global South Primates recently urged TEC to reconsider its rejection of February's Dar Es Salaam Communiqué which requested the US Church to recommit to the Windsor Report, and called for TEC's "heartfelt repentance and genuine change" in order to restore true communion.
