Across the Communion: Cathedral property returned by court

Notes: "The Supreme Court of Zimbabwe has ruled in favour of the Anglican Church of the Province of Central Africa (CPCA) in a legal case involving the province and the breakaway former bishop of the Anglican diocese of Manicaland, Elson Jakazi. In 2007, Jakazi and his supporters broke away from the CPCA and took over the cathedral, churches and other properties. But a final ruling by the Supreme Court confirmed that Jakazi and his supporters had withdrawn from the church 'in their individual capacities'. Bishop of Manicaland, the Rt. Rev. Julius Makoni, said the judgment 'brings an end to uncertainty in the diocese'." [Text of entire article.]
