A Statement from All Saints Brighton Heights (Pittsburgh)
All Saints Episcopal Church
3577 McClure Avenue
Pittsburgh, PA 15212
Attn: The Rev. Dr. James Simons
Dear Fr. Simons:
A poll of the members of All Saints Church, Brighton Heights, was taken September 20 and 21. All but one vote was cast against realignment. We therefore wish to state that our church will stay with the Episcopal Church of the USA.
Our vestry was dissolved by Bishop Duncan in 2006. A Bishop’s Committee was designated, but met only once in 2006. We write as the two delegates to the October diocesan convention.
Our intention is to keep our diocesan assessment in an escrow account beginning October 1, 2008 until further notice.
Sincerely yours,
Marcia King

I know you folks have many outlets but there is always room for one more, right? So, if you need to talk to someone, need to vent, need anything at all there is the Real Anglican website at http://realanglicans.blogspot.com/
Come talk, come pray, come have fun!
Your courage in the face of all you have gone through is a real blessing to those of us who want to remain with TEC in this diocese. We applaud your steadfastness.
