#episcopalian — Public Fediverse posts

As a Medium and an Episcopalian I can't help but wonder if Purgatory isn't just Earth. I see so many spirits here it's hard not to think about...

"Significant and powerful factions of the Church of England and Anglican communion resist [blessing same-sex unions, which she supports]. Gafcon (the Global Anglican Future Conference), a network of conservative churches, has already announced that it receives the news of Bishop Sarah’s appointment 'with sorrow'."

"and one bishop (the bishop of Ebbsfleet) who does not believe women should be in authority over men in the church. Furthermore, there are still nearly 600 churches, according to Women and the Church, that continue to limit women, where she might not be able to preside over the bread and wine or preach."

"As archbishop of Canterbury, Bishop Sarah will preside over a church that is open to women being priests and bishops but, at the same time, has seven serving bishops who welcome her as their new archbishop but would not personally receive communion from her (the bishops of Blackburn, Chichester, Beverley, Fulham, Oswestry, Richborough and Lewes);"

"in February of this year at General Synod, the church’s national assembly, she broke down in tears as she brought to mind the many 'micro-aggressions' she has been subjected to. I would hazard a guess that some of those incidents were not micro at all."

Martine Osborne notes all that Sarah Mulla;ly is up against as the first female archbishop of Canterbury:

"One in five churches in London have passed resolutions to limit women from being vicars or from consecrating the bread and wine. She has been on the receiving end of misogynistic behaviour:"

@xankarn

She's got that #KellyanneConway deadeye vibe for sure 😬😒

This #Episcopalian sees inauthenticity wherever hatred, greed & oppression use religion as a justification

Point of information: she is wearing a cross. A crucifix has Jesus hanging on it & is worn more often by members of sacramental traditions (Roman Catholic, Orthodox)
Per Jeff Sharlett, hyper-'evangelical' #MAGAts are becoming wary of the implied sacrifice a cross signifies & using pulpits made of guns

I ❤️ being #Episcopalian however I do wish we had worship music like #GoodDay by #FlamyGrant (they/them) It’s sad that while we, as a church, welcome everyone in the pews (& to a lesser degree clergy), we have such a hard time welcoming the art, music, and creativity of #non-binary, #queer #trans folx into our wider liturgy. Yes, I want #DragQueens in my church. https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-features/flamy-grant-interview-drag-queen-sean-feucht-christian-music-1234798866/
