The divide widens

Over the past few months I have noticed more Episcopalians and parishes leaving the ECUSA for African Anglican partnerships. I should have been writing about it in order to visualize the scope of the divide, I'll try to pay more attention and share the news here on IMS. As expected the ECUSA has made a decent effort to honor the moratorium imposed on them but the Africans have not honored their power grab moratorium. Homosexuality is the issue the Africans have dreamed of to gain them more influence and wealth in the Anglican Communion. May their collections grow three-fold and may their observance of the pain they cause diminish further!

I predict that every community will feature an Episcopal congregation and an Anglican congregation next door. Hopefully a solution can be found to bring us back together.
