A group of more than 30 bishops of the Episcopal Church have launched a new website to support their campaign to end gun violence.

Bishops Against Gun Violence was established to explore how to reduce "the appalling levels of gun violence in our society, and to advocate for policies and legislation that save lives."

The group forms relationships and coalitiosn by those whose lives have been affected by gun violence, advocates on behalf its victims, and supports all the member bishops as they seek to end gun violence in their communities.

The conveners of the group include Bishop of Newark Mark Beckwith, Bishop of Maryland Eugene Sutton and Connecticut's Bishop Ian Douglas.
