Excellent analysis of the whole sordid mess. With only a week to go before the AOCA convention, the laity needs to understand what has happened and organize. This convention will be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the laity to right things…and make no mistake about it…it’s the job of the laity..not the clergy, not the bishops. As we learned in the GOA charter fiasco, it is simply not fair to expect the lower clergy or the bishops to fight this fight…they have too much to lose.
It’s time for the royal priesthood to “saddle up” and perform it’s time honored role.
My prayer is that they are up to the task.
In the end, you get the leadership you deserve.
Best Regards,
Dean Calvert
