From The Church Times-THE Presiding Bishop of the Episcopal Church in the United States, the Most Revd Michael Curry, has placed a restriction on the ministry of the Bishop of Los Angeles, the Rt Revd Jon Bruno, to prevent his selling a church.
The “partial restriction” was announced on Thursday of last week, in a statement in which Bishop Curry expressed concern for “the good order and welfare of the Church”.
It follows the imposition of a sanction on Bishop Bruno by the Episcopal Church ecclesiastical disciplinary panel that is considering a complaint of misconduct brought against him by parishioners of St James’s, Newport (News, 23 June). The complaint concerns Bishop Bruno’s unsuccessful attempt to sell St James’s in 2015 (News, 7 April). The sanction came after Bishop Bruno declined to deny that he had again tried to sell the church.
