A week ago I visited another church in our Anglican province, some distance from here. Years ago, they had left ECUSA and the ensuing property fight drained all their resources. They lost everything.

But soon after the property was put on the market because ECUSA couldn't maintain it and there were far too parishioners left. ECUSA didn't want to sell it to these folks (the only bidders), but had to in face of a discrimination suit. As a result, these folks in our province acquired a multi-million-dollar property (and beautiful church) for pennies (well, maybe dimes) on the dollar.

This is the second such case I've heard recently, and I don't get around the province much.

Once upon a time we Catholics spoke of the Episcopalians as “skim-milk.” Well, the EC is spoiled milk but the Anglicans rank at least 2%.
