Don’t expect a major statement

The Executive Council of the Episcopal Church is meeting in Portland. Or perhaps they have finished meeting, but not yet made a final statement. For hints at what might be in such a statement, read Matt Kennedy’s live blog from Sunday afternoon’s session. As you can see, the Council does not seem poised to commit news.

Except perhaps for this resolution: EC-008: authorizes the presiding officers of Executive Council to appoint a work group, chaired by House of Deputies President Bonnie Anderson, to consider the role, responsibilities and potential response of the Council to the issues raised by the Primates communiqué and report to the Council’s June meeting.

Meanwhile, here is Bishop Jefferts Schori’s sermon from the liturgy, and here is a story from ENS on some of the business that the Council handled.
