Groups ask for more inclusion in church

Eyes seemed to lock for just a split second on a downtown Cleveland sidewalk Saturday morning -- a man in a robe and 20 women with a banner.
Walking with a banner...this should be a clue...
But to Mary Englert of Lakewood and her group -- whose long sailcloth message read, "Women are priestly people"..."We want priesthood to become more inclusive," she said.

Englert and her group -- Cleveland Women's Ordination Conference, which also included a Cleveland priest -- read a prayer from yellow pages each of them clutched, asking that Catholics allow women and married men to function as priests.
I hear the ECUSA fulfills this wants and desires...
