In the drawn-out property case in Newport Beach, a deed restriction that prevented sale of the disputed property has been nullified
Tells the Hearing Panel that it has no authority over his ability to sell the property and that their decision was the result of a flawed and prejudicial process
Meeting in Chicago, a Hearing Panel consisting of three bishops, a priest and a layperson have determined that the bishop of Los Angeles, the Rt Rev Jon Bruno will face a disciplinary hearing in March on charges related to the closure and attempted sale of property once occupied by St James the Great Episcopal Church in Newport Beach.
The Episcopal Café seeks to be an independent voice, reporting and reflecting on the Episcopal Church and the Anglican tradition. The Café is not a platform of advocacy, but it does aim to tell the story of the church from the perspective of Progressive Christianity. Our collective sympathy, as the Café, lies with the project of widening the circle of inclusion within the church and empowering all the baptized for the role to which they have been called as followers of Christ.
