Complaint Dismissal Appealed

Please email comments to letters@livingchurch.org.

After seeing their complaint turned down by an intake officer, six members of the American Anglican Fellowship Inc. have appealed the decision. The fellowship was known previously as the American Anglican Council of Washington.

Its complaint charges that Presiding Bishop Katharine Jefferts Schori has engaged in misconduct because of multiple lawsuits brought against congregations and bishops in disputes involving property.

The full texts of the appeal, a cover letter about the dismissal, and the dismissal follow.
