The Bishop of Central Florida reports from yesterday. What is significant is this -
"We plan to remind our fellow Bishops of what the Archbishop of Canterbury wrote to me last October: "I would repeat what I've said several times before -- that any diocese compliant with Windsor remains clearly in communion with Canterbury and the mainstream of the Communion, whatever may be the longer-term result for others in TEC. The organ of union with the wider Church is the bishop and the diocese rather than the Provincial structure as such.... "
In other words The Archbishop of Canterbury is prepared to recognize dioceses on a case by case basis as being a part of the communion even if the province won't sign on to the covenant.
