All Saints Pawleys Island, once the flagship parish of the Anglican Mission in the Americas, is facing a pitched battle over whether its rector, the Rev. Rob Grafe should stay or go.

In July, Grafe sent out a letter saying that he thought All Saints should move to the Anglican Church in North America (ACNA), "I believe the Anglican Church of North America is that faithful place of coming together; a unified Anglican witness in North America through which we can continue to walk out our new life in Jesus Christ and serve Him as His Church. I believe All Saints Parish is called to affiliate with the Anglican Church of North America under the oversight of Archbishop Bob Duncan, in communion with the GAFCON and Global South Primates. I see this as the faithful next step. We continue to stand for His truth, and we stand for His truth in unity."
