No Word Yet

This was posted several weeks ago:
In December, a rector in the Diocese of Central NY wrote to the Senior Warden of our parish, St. Andrew's in Vestal, to invite a group of our lay leaders to meet with a group of lay leaders from his parish. The invitation came after the rector became concerned about the direction of our parish. Our Senior Warden has accepted the invitation on behalf of our parish, but the inviting parish has not yet agreed to a conversation. I will keep you posted.

Update: Our Senior Warden contacted the Senior Warden of St. Peter's in Cazenovia to accept the invitation extended by the rector in a letter dated 12/6. To date, St. Peter's has not yet contacted us about setting up the meeting that the rector proposed.

From the 12/6 letter, the rector, the Rev. Robin Flocken writes, "May I invite you to sit down with a group of cradle Episcopalians from Cazenovia and talk about things together, parishioners to parishioners.

Our folks have accepted the invitation; why haven't the good folks of Cazenovia gotten back to us with a time for this meeting?

I'll keep you posted.
