Bishop Vann of Fort Worth met with Episcopal delegation to discuss full communion

August 14, 2008

Fort Worth, TX (DFW Catholic) - While not officially released by the Dioces of Fort Worth, the Dallas Morning News reports that a spokesman for the Bishop has confirmed that a delegation of Episcopal priests from Fort Worth visited with Bishop Kevin Vann to discuss how their diocese might enter full communion with the Catholic Church. Allegedly, a document was presented to Bishop Vann by the priests which claims that a majority of clergy in the Episcopal diocese favor union with Rome.

It was also reported that the Epicopal diocese has already held one of the two votes required and will vote again in November.
