TEC recognizes that churches will close

from BabyBlueOnline by BabyBlue

It's not clear to me why TEC continues to pursue litigation rather than robust settlement for church properties when they are facing the overwhelming necessity to close and sell churches in all parts of the United States. Perhaps cooler heads will prevail as the numbers show a disturbing trend. And by the way, before ACNA or AMiA folks say it won't happen here - oh yes it will. It all ready is happening. Something is happening here, but do we know what it is?

Here Rod Webster, VP and General Manager of the Church Insurance Companies lays it all out for the Episcopal Church Building Fund:

Popout

I do pray that this reality might bring those now engaged in litigation back to the negotiating table, if only just to stop and smell the roses. Certainly the public witness of all the parties working together for a non-litigious solution will be a better way forward for everyone.
