Episcopal church approves 2nd bishop By The Associated Press 8:55am sexy couple want fuck EDT (Los -) The Episcopal Church has approved the election of a lesbian assistant bishop in the Diocese of Los, making her the second openly bishop in the Anglican global fellowship, diocese officials said Wednesday. Episcopal conservatives were quick to criticize the approval of the Rev. Glasspool of Baltimore, who was elected last December, and said the move was “grieving the heart of God.” Still, Glasspool’s victory underscored a continued Episcopal commitment to accepting same-sex relationships despite enormous pressure from other Anglicans to change their stand. “I am … aware that not everyone rejoices in this election and consent, and work, pray and continue to extend my own hands and heart to bridge those gaps, and strengthen the bonds of affection among all people, in the name of Christ,” Glasspool said in a printed statement. Glasspool and the Rev. M. Jardine were elected in December to serve as assistant bishops, making them the first women bishops to serve in that diocese. Both, however, needed the full church’s approval to be consecrated. Both are scheduled to be consecrated on 15. The Episcopal Church, which is the Anglican body in the United States, caused an uproar in by consecrating the first openly bishop, V. Robinson of New Hampshire. Breakaway Episcopal conservatives have formed a rival church, the Anglican Church in North. Several overseas Anglicans have been pressuring Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan, spiritual leader of the world’s 77 million Anglicans, to officially recognize the new conservative entity.
