Mid-East church group supports women's ordination as pastors

Representatives of Middle Eastern Anglican, Lutheran and Reformed churches, meeting in Harissa, Lebanon, have voted unanimously in favour of the ordination of women as pastors, reports Ecumenical News International.

"This is historic and allows us to move forward in a leading role," said Jerusalem Lutheran Bishop Munib Younan after decision at the general assembly of the Fellowship of Middle East Evangelical Churches.

Younan, the fellowship's outgoing president, said the decision meant its 16 member churches were urged to open the door to the ordination of women pastors.
