More than 115 bishops of The Episcopal Church will gather for the House of Bishops spring retreat meeting March 19 – 24 in Camp Allen, Texas.
"Our spring gathering will focus specifically on both the nature of episcopacy and on the evangelistic challenges/opportunities presented by the emergent church movement," Presiding Bishop Katharine Jefferts Schori wrote to the bishops.
Well-known authors and lecturers Diana Butler-Bass and Phyllis Tickle along with others will lead discussions about the fast-growing Emergent Church movement. Other discussions will focus on the groundbreaking Around One Table report and the Anglican Covenant. The Theology Committee will present a study entitled "Same Sex Relationships in the Life of the Church."
