Addendum to "All Things Lambeth"

This contribution is from Farmer Wendy Lyons of Suffield, CT

http://letterstolambeth.org

She writes:

"Letters to Lambeth is a thoughtful "LGTB" site encouraging people to write letters that try to put a face on those members of our church that some wish to have excluded from full participation. The idea is that it is easier to make up exclusive rules about an imaginary faceless labeled group, than about living, breathing, thinking, loving, worshipping, faithful individuals. The letters are sent to the bishops meeting for the Lambeth Conference, and may be private, or public (writer allows for publication on the site or elsewhere) Some very interesting contributions from the former archbishop of Uganda, as well as many from 'ordinary' Anglicans/Episcopalians of all ages and sexual orientations. I just discovered the site as a link from a parish website, but I gather it is not new, and was established in response to the expressed wish from the 1998 Lambeth Conference that there be an ongoing 'listening process' on the issues of sexuality and the church."

Thanks, Wendy, for the inclusive update.
