I have been asked by our Vestry and a number of our members to publically state my position on recent events between the Episcopal Diocese of South Carolina and the national Episcopal Church. For the past four years I have attempted to teach and clarify issues as objectively as I could as they arose between the Worldwide Anglican Communion, The Episcopal Church and our Diocese.
I will continue to do that in the two upcoming congregational meetings. So there will be no confusion however I will now make a summary of my own thoughts clear.
I have been a part of the Anglican Communion and the Episcopal Church for all of my life and my family for at least twenty generations that we can trace. We were Episcopalians before there were Episcopalians and helped to start the Church of England in the first colonies and the new American Province in 1789. It is therefore with great sadness that I have watched the events unfolding over these past fifteen years.
