Anglicans Support Canada and America

In view of the decision of Anglican Primates (Newry, Northern Ireland, February 2005) to ask two Anglican Churches to consider withdrawing from the Anglican Consultative Council (ACC) for – at least – three years LGCM is calling on all our friends in the Anglican Communion to express support for the Anglican Churches of the United Sates of America and Canada.

LGCM does not believe that either of these Churches should be made to feel unwelcome in any way whatsoever in any part in the Anglican Communion. Their attitude towards lesbian and gay people should be commended rather than condemned.

We the undersigned:

  • consider ourselves to be in full communion with the Anglican Church of Canada; the Episcopal Church of the United States of America, including the Diocese of New Hampshire and its Bishop, Gene Robinson
  • regret the actions of those other member churches of the Anglican Communion which have resulted in attempts to isolate the Anglican Church of Canada and the Episcopal Church of the United States of America within the Communion


Please also consider

  • collecting more individual signatures. Send this to a friend!
  • presenting the text to your next available Parochial Church Council meeting (or equivalent in your own country) in the form "This PCC considers itself to be ... and regrets the actions..."
