I won’t comment about women priests but it’s great to hear that there are some Anglicans who understand that God simply does not approve of homosexual acts.

" . . . made holy by the love it housed . . . "

Probably used the place for a brothel.

We grieve that this building, made holy by the love it housed...

Here's the whole problem in a nutshell. It's God and only God who can make anything holy. Man isn't capable. That she doesn't know that tells me everything I need to know.

Took about 16 years to right this wrong. ECUSA had diocese take property from conservative congregations that did not want the Gay agenda. The families that had paid for and built those churches for generations had no claim to the property according the ECUSA.

“We grieve that this building, made holy by the love it housed, will now be in the hands of those who believe women are not proper matter for ordination and that LGBTQ people are somehow disordered."

If you want to jump up and down advertising that you may be in a Romans 1:18-32 condition that is how you do it.

Anglicanism/Episcopalianism in the USA is a nearly dead religion

Its now merely a holding company for some very valuable properties. That’s why they carry on.

This is what liberalism progressive leftism does - total destruction and secularism to anything it invades. It’s a disease.

The Episcopal Church has abandoned God and their parishioners. They care only about fighting for the property. Dead church walking.

I could easily become Anglican or Episcopalian, if I could find a church nearby which believed like the group that won. What once was a Godly and Scriptural denomination has, for the most part, been taken over by outrageous, licentious liberals. And since there is only one Scripture that disallows women teaching in church, I’m ambivalent about women pastors. Our current pastors, in my church, are husband and wife, and the wife is a much better preacher than her husband, though she is submissive to her husband’s authority.

"...wrote Episcopal lay leader Katie Sherrod ..."

I can remember when three of us jarheads were on liberty and became closely acquainted with a lay leader...
She wasn't an Episcopal... We suppressed out bitter disappointment...
