The Episcopal Church has rewritten the church's Title IV canons with sweeping changes that severely limit diocesan powers and centralizing power in the National Church.
The Domestic and Foreign Missionary Society has formally put into writing, with the force of Canon Law that TEC is a "hierarchical church" which all must accede too, while at the same time The Episcopal Church claims to promote repentance, reconciliation, restitution, forgiveness, healing, justice, and amendment of life.
