January 24 2004 By virtueonline Bishop Lipscomb Clarifies Position on new NACDP Network

I have been clear that I do not intend to leave the Episcopal Church. I cannot condone any congregation of this diocese acting to leave the Episcopal Church even though I know that individuals who are deeply troubled by the actions of our Church may find it necessary to join other ecclesial communities.

Surrounding the creation and establishment of the {AMiA} has been charge and countercharge, innuendo, deceit, treachery, gossip, backbiting, lawsuits, and more. Substitute just about any initiative of value that you'd like in between the braces { } in the sentence above, and chances are it will still be true.

Yours ever in Christ's love,

January 18 2004 By virtueonline CONFLICTING & DECEPTIVE MESSAGES

However, we receive a mixed message from others in the same camp. They
say, "We value you...we love you in God...please stay and dialogue with
us" Or, "You may leave, but not with your property."

Maybe we conservative Episcopalians should pick up a daisy, and pull
off the pedals, one at an item, asking,"They love me?...they love me
not?"
