World Briefing | Africa: 2 More U.S. Priests Align With African AnglicansDeepening the disarray in the Anglican Communion over homosexuality, the archbishop of Kenya, Benjamin Nzimbi, consecrated two American priests as bishops of the Anglican Church of Kenya to serve disaffected Episcopalians in the United States.

The consecration at All Saints Cathedral in Nairobi followed similar consecrations of Americans by the archbishops of Nigeria and Rwanda.

Rowan Williams, spiritual leader of the worldwide communion of 77 million members.
