A fourth Anglican archbishop from Africa has announced plans to appoint an American bishop to take conservative U.S. churches under its wing.

The archbishop of Uganda, the Most Rev. Henry Luke Orombi, reaffirmed on Thursday that he will consecrate the Rev. John A.M. Guernsey, rector of All Saints Church in Dale City, Va., as a bishop in the Church of Uganda. Guernsey will provide local oversight to the 26 congregations in the United States that are already part of the Church of Uganda.

Orombi's announcement comes a week after Kenya's Anglican archbishop, Benjamin Nzimbi, said he will install Canon Bill Atwood as suffragan bishop of All Saints' Cathedral Diocese, Nairobi, to provide a "safe haven" for Anglicans seeking to remain faithful to historic Anglican faith. the rest
