Sacramental Ministry

Movers Browning, G.V.

That

(i) the Commission on Ministry and Training, in conjunction with the Rural Ministry Task Group, be requested
to bring to the 1998 General Synod guidelines for the provision of a sacramental ministry in areas where a stipendiary priestly ministry cannot be sustained. The Doctrine Commission be requested to contribute to the report an exploration of the indelibility of orders and of ecumenically shared eucharistic ministry.

(ii) All rural dioceses be invited to draft a set of guidelines in those Dioceses and report to the Commission
and the Rural Ministry Task Force.
