Anglicans and Episcopalians move on

From the Fresno Bee-

Next weekend's local diocesan conventions for Anglicans and Episcopalians will be times for celebrations -- and not to look back at the rift that led the Anglicans to break away from the U.S. Episcopal Church. Spiritually, both sides are getting past the split and moving in new directions.

"It's a lot more celebration; a lot less business," says the Rev. Bill Gandenberger, a spokesman for the Anglicans.

A spokesman for the Episcopalians, the Rev. Mark Hall, says, "People now are talking and having a good time building for unity and good conversation."

I am glad that those in San Joaquin who realigned with the Anglican Province of the Southern Cone are calling themselves Anglicans and not confusing things by keeping the name "Episcopal" in their church names. I hope that will be the case in Pittsburgh as well!
