C037 Working for Equity, Support, and Protection of All LGBTQIA+ Anglicans

Final Status: Took No Further Action

Resolved, That the 81st General Convention embolden the bishops of The Episcopal Church to open opportunities for engagement and to work actively for change in the Anglican Communion with regard to treatment of LGBTQIA+ persons; and be it further

Resolved, That the 81st General Convention, mindful of the failings of this Church to promote the dignity of every human being, stand ready, in a spirit of mutual confession and repentance, to work for reconciliation with other member churches of the Communion so that the injustices and violence of our several institutions against LGBTQIA+ persons be ended, both in our churches and in the larger society.
