Memo To Bishop Charles E. Bennison: IN GOD'S NAME GO
Bennison says he will concentrate on listening. "I have learned a great deal, and my listening has been very productive," Bennison said in a statement emailed to Episcopal News Service by Ceisler Media and Issue Advocacy, a Philadelphia media relations firm.

SCREWTAPE PROPOSES AN EPISCOPAL TOAST - (13)
He will persecute the remaining faithful, abuse women emotionally and, because they fear losing their jobs, they will take it lying down, if you'll pardon the pun.

Day of Reckoning Approaches for Episcopal Diocese of Springfield - UPDATED
Among the best candidates rejected was the Rev. Dr. Robert Munday, 55, dean and president, Nashotah House Theological Seminary in Nashotah, WI. He is a former professor at Trinity School for Ministry (Ambridge) and clearly should have been a contender, a front-runner in fact.
