Proposed
Diocesan Convention Resolution
In accordance with the Lord's High Priestly prayer that we be one, and in obedience to his Great Commission to go into the world and make disciples, and in gratitude for the wider Anglican Communion which is a sign of the fulfillment of the High Priestly Prayer, and in working toward reconciliation of all people with God and each other, we propose the following resolution:
Whereas the Diocese of Western Louisiana is committed to following the recommendations of The Windsor Report; and
Whereas we support Bishop MacPherson's resolution to the House of Bishops meeting in New Orleans expressly calling for the establishment of a Pastoral Scheme as outlined in the Dar es Salaam Communiqué;
Be it resolved that the Diocese of Western Louisiana calls upon our Bishop, Standing Committee, and General Convention Deputation to initiate plans, and to take all possible action toward the creation and implementation of the Pastoral Scheme proposed in the Dar es Salaam Communiqué; and to take all possible action to ensure that the Diocese of Western Louisiana remains fully in communion with the wider Anglican Communion.
