		San Francisco Archbishop George Niederauer is a man who faces one of the most difficult challenges of any episcopacy--this story tells you why.
		SAN FRANCISCO, March 30, 2006 _ A firestorm of defiance over Church teaching on homosexuality has been ignited following the appointment of George Niederauer as archbishop of San Francisco and a Vatican directive telling San Francisco Catholic Charities to halt gay adoption.

	Gay adoptions test San Francisco archbishop - The Boston Globe
		SAN FRANCISCO -- Without barring adoptions by gay families outright, San Francisco's archbishop, George Niederauer, has made it clear he believes that placing children in same-sex households conflicts with Roman Catholic teachings on homosexuality, a spokesman said.
		Healy said Catholic Charities might be able to complete any adoptions by gay couples that already are in the pipeline, but he was less sure whether Niederauer's position offered any flexibility.
		Meanwhile, the San Francisco Board of Supervisors is scheduled to consider a resolution today calling on Levada to withdraw his comments and for local Catholic leaders to ''to defy all discriminatory directives of Cardinal Levada."

		The archbishop, who is co-chair with Episcopal Bishop Edwin F. Gulick of Kentucky for the dialogue in the United States, said this new moment came in large part from the way the role of the bishop of Rome was presented in a 1999 document, "The Gift of Authority," issued by the Anglican-Roman Catholic International Commission.
		Archbishop Levada said reactions to the document had been more favorable on the Catholic side than the Anglican, and that representatives of the evangelical wing of Anglicanism in particular objected that it did not reflect the Protestant side of their heritage.
		However, Archbishop Levada noted that the Anglican ordination of women presented a difficulty for Catholics, and said the international dialogue group had a mandate, not yet dealt with, to examine the implications of this Anglican decision for ecclesiology and for the issue of authority in relation to tradition.

		San Francisco - Metropolitan Anthony of San Francisco was laid to rest yesterday, after a moving Funeral Service at the Ascension Cathedral of Oakland, Calif., which was attended by faithful and clergy from across the country and around the world.
		The Eulogy was delivered by Archbishop Demetrios, who started by expressing the gratitude of the Church to the clergy and laity, the doctors, nurses and medical personnel, who assisted Metropolitan Anthony in various ways, during the difficult time of the final weeks of his life at the hospital in Sacramento, Calif.
