Anglican Unscripted filled in the details on the forthcoming ACNA conclave. George Conger reports here that the conclave will happen after the March 12th consecration of Chip Edgar as bishop.
- The conclave is scheduled to take place at the St. Christopher Camp and Conference Center on Seabrook Island.
- Archbishop Beach wants 90 percent of the bishops there or the conclave is off.
- The purpose of the conclave is to get rid of misconceptions and grievances and have people talk to each other rather than through others online. It is not a meeting “to slam C4SO.”
Calling this a conclave probably means it will follow the rules of the conclave that elected Archbishop Beach in 2014, which you can read about here. That included a vow of silence probably based on Roman Catholic practice, which means you probably won’t see press releases that say much beyond vague phrases.
UPDATE: The conclave had been delayed according to Conger and Kallsen. No word yet on a future date.
