VA Episcopal Bishop fires Priests who already resigned and joined the CANA
Link
The wonderful Bishop Peter James Lee, of the Episcopal Diocese of Virginia, "depose[d] clergy who were barred in January from performing priestly duties in the diocese. The clergy, however, have already quit, noted Jim Oakes, vice chairman of the Anglican District of Virginia (ADV) - an association of conservative Anglican congregations."
- Congregations from 15 churches voted overwhelmingly in December to sever ties with The Episcopal Church, citing the denomination's departure from Anglican tradition and Christian orthodoxy. They essentially removed themselves from the Episcopal ministry and placed themselves under the authority of the Church of Nigeria.
Maybe next week the Pope can excommunicate the breakaway priests.
