AUGUST 17. 2008 · THE LIVING CHU ROI 9 EDITORIALS

Sounds Familiar As the Lambeth Conference headed into its third and final week, the 650 or so Anglican bishops participating in the decennial con­ ference must have had thoughts of deja vu. To many, the recom­ mendations made by the Windsor Continuation Group, a body appointed by the Archbishop of Canterbury, seemed very much like other proposals that have come forth since the Windsor Report was published in 2004. In Part Three of its preliminary observations, the group states there are "urgent issues" that need to be addressed, and then rec­ ommends that a moratorium be put in place throughout the Angli­ can Communion that would stop the celebration of blessings for same-gender unions, consecrations as bishops of those who are liv­ ing in openly gay relationships, and "border crossings" by bishops to in other dioceses. All three recommendations were con­ tained within the Windsor Report. Another important recommendation in Part Three is the creation of a "pastoral forum," which would be called into action when con­ troversial or divisive actions take place in the Communion. The Archbishop of Canterbury would be the president of such a forum, he would appoint its convener and members, and the group would be employed when violations of the moratoria occur. Those who were at Lambeth, and most of the rest of us, have heard this before. The Windsor Report and the meetings of Angli­ can primates in Northern Ireland in 2005 and in Tanzania in 2007 threatened discipline against The Episcopal Church if it did not abide by the terms of the Windsor Report, but nothing happened. The verbiage offered by the Windsor Continuation Group is one thing, but actually carrying out sanctions against violations of the moratoria by any member of the Communion is a tall order. It is encouraging to note that the Windsor Continuation Group emphasizes that it expects there would be a cessation of same-gen­ der blessings, but it is unrealistic for this body to believe that such a moratorium would be accepted in The Episcopal Church. Advo­ cates for these blessings have made it clear that they do not intend to tum back or refrain from performing such liturgies in the future. And in a press conference at Canterbury following publication of the report, Bishop Clive Handford, from the province of Jerusalem and the Middle East, said it would not be possible to enforce the moratoria at local parishes. Another important element of the report affects those churches in North America that have affiliated with other Anglican provinces. Under this proposal, those congregations would be placed in a "safe space," what Bishop Handford described as "kind of a holding bay," until eventually they can return to their national churches. Consid­ erable change would need to take place in those North American provinces before those churches that have left would be willing to return. At the same time, the report's call for a cessation of "border crossings" by bishops, a wise strategy, would need the cooperation of overseas primates in order to have a chance of being imple­ mented. Overall, the report of the Windsor Continuation Group is a good effort in trying to prevent the Anglican Communion from breaking apart. Unfortunately, the two sides are now so far apart that it prob­ ably will take a stronger proposal than this in order to have a chance at restoring unity.
