Break with pecusa complete

When Bishop Duncan at the ACNA Assembly said that the break with pecusa is complete (see post below) he was speaking for those already out of pecusa who are part of the ACNA. His statement did not mean that no more parishes or even dioceses will leave pecusa. For example, at the annual national council of the Convocation of Anglicans in North America (CANA) in about a month we will be recognizing ten new parishes including at least one from a diocese in New York. Parishes continue to contact CANA and the other member jurisdictions of the ACNA about leaving pecusa. I expect that parishes will continue to leave pecusa and as I suggest above it is possible that there will be more dioceses leaving as well. So, while the ACNA signals a complete break with pecusa, this isn't to say that pecusa losses are over.
