JAMAICA: Final resolution text adopted by ACC-14 delegates
Anglican-TV
5/19/2009
* thanks the Covenant Design Group for their faithfulness and responsiveness in producing the drafts for an Anglican Communion Covenant and, in particular, for the Ridley Cambridge Draft submitted to this meeting;
* recognises that an Anglican Communion Covenant may provide an effective means to strengthen and promote our common life as a Communion;
* asks the Archbishop of Canterbury, in consultation with the Secretary General, to appoint a small working group to consider and consult with the Provinces on section 4 and its possible revision, and to report to the next meeting of the Joint Standing Committee;
* asks the JSC, at that meeting, to approve a final form of section 4;
* asks the Secretary General to send the revised Ridley Cambridge text, at that time, only to the member Churches of the Anglican Consultative Council for consideration and decision on acceptance or adoption by them as the Anglican Communion Covenant;
* asks those member Churches to report to ACC-15 on the progress made in the processes of response to, and acceptance or adoption of, the Covenant.

Re: JAMAICA: Final resolution text adopted by ACC-14 dele... Have you noticed that everything RW has his hands in is designed to be confusing.....it is now a question of 1)is this always normal for RW's outcomes through ignorance, or 2) is someone that aids RW doing this, because I don't think that RW is wise enough to do it on his own.

Re: JAMAICA: Final resolution text adopted by ACC-14 dele... And then the next draft will be passed around, debated, and consigned to yet more commitees and working groups. Enough.
The Covenant is DOA anyway. Why waste time on this? It will only hold together those who are already together. |
