His comments were reported by Eileen E. Flynn of the AMERICAN-STATESMAN.

Though he didn't allude specifically to the current problems in the church, Griswold assured graduates that the Holy Spirit will be working in them at the most difficult times.

"I hope, when you have these experiences, which you surely will, you might remember these words from your presiding bishop, who is no stranger to what he is saying," Griswold said.

This is too disingenuous by half.

These are the basic steps set forth in the DEPO plan:

First, in the spirit of openness, the rector and vestry, or the canonically designated lay leadership seeking a compatible bishop shall meet with the bishop to seek reconciliation.

Consider the following.

A retired 78-year old homoerotic bishop who should be spending his declining years playing with his grand-children and telling them the ageless story of Jesus and His love, instead “marries” a 62-year old four times married man so he can “legally” engage in sodomite acts while his 7-year old grandchild is made to watch this human farce of a “wedding”.

But then it all goes awry.

This is no no said the Louisiana Bishop to the five bishops. He demanded they appear in Atlanta, at their expense, and face whatever retribution he and his fellow revisionist bishops planned to dole out to the uninclusive five.
