To our brothers and sisters in the Diocese of Pittsburgh of the Anglican Province of the Southern Cone:
We thank God for your courageous and faithful decision to align with the Province of the Southern Cone. This has been a direct answer to prayer and an enormous encouragement to many who hold the faith once for all delivered to the Saints. We recognize that this decision was taken with much prayer and careful thought, and that it will bring both joy and further suffering for the name of Christ.
It was just over ten months ago that the Anglican Network in Canada was embraced by Archbishop Greg and the Province of the Southern Cone. We want to welcome you to our jurisdiction and commit ourselves to working together for a truly orthodox province in North America, so that the gospel might grow and many might come to find salvation and life in Christ.
Your vote was a double joy for us: Not only do we now belong to the same jurisdiction, but you are now able to recall Bishop Bob Duncan as your bishop, after his shameful mistreatment.
Be assured of our prayers and continued love as we seek to repair the tear in the fabric of the communion for the sake of God’s kingdom.
The Right Reverend Donald F Harvey
