Progressive Episcopalians of Pittsburgh (PEP) asks whether or not the statements made at the House of Bishops’ meeting make adequate provision for people such as themselves: progressive believers who are being marginalized in Anglican Communion Network dioceses:
Of particular concern to PEP, however, is the fact that the episcopal visitors plan makes no provision for connecting to the wider Episcopal Church loyal Episcopalians in dioceses (such as Pittsburgh) that have requested “alternative primatial oversight.” “Many of us celebrated the election of Bishop Katharine Jefferts Schori,” explained PEP board member and blogger Dr. Lionel Deimel. “Should our bishop accept an episcopal visitor, those of us who have been most vocal in support of our church would be isolated from it and subject to even less respect within our diocese than we are now.”
