Episcopal Church promotes the “T” in LGBT equation

“Many have left, including myself.”

Ditto!

I must say in my anger I get a bit too harsh sometimes as there are those who stay and rescue others and God Bless them for their courage!

It’s a terribly bad, sad state of affairs - I hope you still have some brothers and sisters to fellowship with!

As my family and I fled from the apostasy of the Episcopal church several years ago, I sent a letter to Bishop Wimberly of the DOT warning him of the decay from within.

His response to me was a vehement denial that the Diocese of Texas was on the decline and that it would remain conservative.

DOT now supports homosexual lifestyles and ordination of openly homosexual clergy. So glad to be outta all that mess.

It’s demonic, the way they have gutted their church and destroyed it.

My wife and I were in Sacramento, CA a few years ago for her brother's graduation. The ceremony was in a convention center in downtown Sac right next to the oldest church in town, a beautiful stone Episcopalian church. After graduation we went into the church to check it out--beautiful stained glass, ornately carved wood pews and paneling, truly a beautiful relic of the past. There was a group of people setting up sound equipment on the altar, getting ready for some event. We spoke to one elderly woman about the church, it's history, etc. We asked what event they were getting ready for and it was a "universal church" service that embraced all religions--eastern, western, whatever. She said, "...because we're all praying to the same god, right?" We didn't respond and just left, saddened at how the church had sold out.

Are you sure this isn’t the Methodist church?

“I sent a letter to Bishop Wimberly of the DOT warning him of the decay from within. His response to me was a vehement denial that the Diocese of Texas was on the decline and that it would remain conservative.”

Seeing as the largest congregation in Texas pulled out of the Episcopal Church, I guess that is not going too well. I think the Diocese of Ft. Worth may have pulled out also.

Could have been. It’s the stone church next to the downtown convention center.
