[Magdalen] 224th Convention of The Episcopal Church in SC

[Ginga Wilder]

Roger,
I am so glad you and your friends enjoyed the Benne Wafers.  They truly can
be addictive.

Yes, TECSC standing committee does indeed approve bishops' elections.  In
our Bishop's address he explained very clearly that TECSC and her
congregations are part of the WW Anglican Communion through The Episcopal
Church, which is the only branch of Anglicanism recognized in the United
States.  ABC Justin Welby clarified in a recent radio interview that Mark
Lawrence's church is not part of the Anglican Communion...is not in
communion with Canterbury.  This does not stop the Lawrence church from
fudging the language and using lots of equivocal words to try to claim a
connection (through African Primates mostly).  Simply is not true.
