How to Donate to the Anglican Communion Network: They are accused of helping parishes keep property

http://www.standfirminfaith.com/index.php/site/article/2732/

[Stand Firm] 4 April 2007--A number of bishops have placed in their pastoral letters about the recent House of Bishops meeting ominous notes about the "secret plans" of the Network to either 1) establish an alternate province within the Anglican Communion or 2) "steal Episcopal church property" or both.

The Network has been crystal clear about its hopes and dreams for a province within the Anglican Communion for orthodox Episcopalians. In numerous speeches, statements, and resolutions these hopes have been clear and public.

The most recent pronouncement by a so-called "Windsor Bishop", Duncan Gray of the Diocese of Mississippi, calls Network property assistance "a carefully designed plan" to "remove church buildings and other property from the Episcopal church" -- which being translated means apparently helping parishes who leave the Episcopal church keep their property.

In fact, the Episcopal church is -- openly as well, but through very private meetings -- working to gain funds and scheming with other chancellors and attorneys and bishops to steal property from departing ex-Episcopal congregations. They are frantic about acquiring the property of departing congregations.
