Kenyan Anglican Province calls for exclusion of The Episcopal Church from all Activities in Communion

Kenyan Anglican Province calls for exclusion of The Episcopal Church from all Activities in Communion

The Provincial Synod of the Anglican Church of Kenya condemned The Episcopal Church at its annual meeting, held at All Saints' Cathedral, and called for the exclusion of TEC from "all activities in the Communion as a measure of discipline."

Clearly with an eye to the Archbishop of Canterbury's call for all Primates to attend a special meeting in Canterbury in January to decide the future of the Anglican Communion, the Synod said it continues to disassociate with the Episcopal Church of America -- which has now officially sanctioned a liturgy for same sex marriages.

"The Anglican Church of Kenya supports the Global South and the arms of the Anglican Communion to exclude TEC from all activities in the Communion as a measure of discipline and recognizes ACNA Archbishop Foley Beach.," the resolution said.

Archbishop Beach was a plenary speaker at the Anglican Church of Kenya's 'Divine Conference' in August.
