Toronto alert

July 31, 2008 – 6:28 am

We’ve been told that one of the speaker’s at this afternoon’s press conference on sexuality will be the diocesan bishop of Toronto, Colin Johnson. There will, of course, be a story on the Journal Web site about the press confence, where we will be briefed about how the bishops have responded to the following questions in their discussion (indaba) and Bible Study groups:

1. How has the Communion’s engagement with same-sex issues impacted my diocese’s participation in God’s mission?

2. What do I need from my fellow bishops to enable me to be true to my role as a leader in God’s mission?

3. What am I prepared to offer my fellow bishops to help them?

I understand that an audio of the press conference will also be made available to the diocese of Toronto Web site.
