‘We Pray for Reconciliation’

Leaders and friends of Communion Partners write:

We continue to be concerned about Prayer Book revision in the Episcopal Church, including the possibility of change in the doctrine of marriage in our Prayer Book formularies.

We pray for reconciliation within the Anglican Communion. We note the intentional statement of the bishops of the Episcopal Church of South Sudan and Sudan. Though severing communion with the Episcopal Church, they nonetheless remain in communion with the Episcopal dioceses represented by the signers of the Salt Lake City Statement of 2015. We call for the conclusion of litigation between the Episcopal Church and its former members, and for prayer and work for eventual reconciliation with those who have left the Episcopal Church.

The full statement follows, and is available as a PDF on the Communion Partners website.
