Bp. Bruce Macpherson Invited to Tanzania

Bishop Bruce Macpherson of the Diocese of Western Louisiana received a phone call from the office of the Archbishop of Canterbury yesterday requesting that he attend the Primates’ Meeting in Tanzania. He has since received a follow up email confirming the telephone call. Specifically, he has been asked to be there on February 14, at the beginning of the Primates’ Meeting, rather than as part of a preliminary meeting before the Primates officially convene. This is the same invitation given to Bishop Duncan of Pittsburgh. +Bruce has accepted this invitation.

Bp. Macpherson is the president of the Presiding Bishop's Council of Advise and voted against the consecration of Gene Robinson. He is reported to be a solid orthodox bishop, but not of the Network or the Windsor Bishops.

Please pray for +Bruce and the Primates’ Meeting.
