Letter to the editor: Live More Boldly

Notes: "As I listen to General Synod attendees share their experiences from Halifax, I find myself asking, 'What watershed ?' I celebrate that Synod was able to put into process the acceptance of Canon 22, which establishes a self-determining indigenous ministry. Such a decision reflects a national church that seems able to embrace full inclusion of distinct and diverse communities. And yet, gay and lesbian Anglicans continue to stand off to the side, relegated to being less than complete human beings within our community of faith. As long as the learning, discerning prayerful debates or indaba-like conversations continue, gay and lesbian Anglicans will be denied what every other Anglican enjoys: the full and blessed recognition of our relationships".
