[Pittsburgh Post-Gazette] 11 Feb 2008--Nearly 100 leading laity in the Episcopal Diocese of Pittsburgh have signed an open letter expressing their "strong support for the godly direction" of Bishop Robert W. Duncan Jr. in removing the diocese from the national church and realigning it with a more biblically conservative province of the worldwide Anglican Communion.
The letter, the idea of Edith M. Humphrey, a professor of New Testament at Pittsburgh Theological Seminary, and Leslie Thyberg, chair of the diocese's board of examining chaplains, was written in response to a separate letter last month by 12 conservative clergy who broke with the bishop in declaring their intention to remain in the Episcopal Church.
