As some of the woman clergy of the Anglican Church in North America, we wish to publicly express our support to you and other survivors of abuse as you share your difficult stories.

We appreciate your vulnerability and bravery and seeking help and protection. We grieve with you, and are praying for your healing and recovery from trauma, and commit to advocate for you and all of those who endure sexual abuse. We hear you and want you to know you are not alone. As you navigate the coming months, know that you, the other survivors, and the entire Diocese have our constant prayers.

We pledge, by the mercy of God, to support the diocese and congregations of the Anglican Church in North America and they're continuing hard work of developing clear processes to respond to all allegations of abuse with urgency, compassion, accountability, and transparency.

With tears of grief,
