Dear Mr. Gruetzemacher,

Greetings in the name of Jesus Christ.

As Moderator of the Network of Anglican Communion Dioceses and Parishes, it is with great joy that I

welcome you to the Network based on the approval by the Steering Committee of your application to affiliate

as an "Anglican Communion Partner-pending" (i.e. securing Episcopal oversight). I rejoice in counting you

among the dioceses, congregations and clergy who are standing together for Gospel truth and our faithful

expression of Anglicanism in North America.

The Network is organized and administered through a series of six convocations (5 geographic and one for

members of Forward in Faith North America). Each convocation is overseen by a Dean appointed by the

Network and who generously serves on a voluntary basis. It is our pleasure to assign you to the Southeastern

Convocation and encourage you to be in contact with your Dean, Fr. James McCaslin at 904-268-4600, or

jimmccaslin@bellsouth.net for information on Convocation and Network-wide activities and events.

If you may have any needs for which I can be of personal assistance, please do not hesitate to call upon

my office. In this regard, you are also welcome to contact my Executive Assistant, The Rev. Larry Crowell

at 412-325-0095, or lacrowe1l53@comcast.net.

In closing, please know that you are in my prayers as we enter into this season of reform for our church.

Faithfully in Christ, ~

The Right Reverend Robert Wm. Duncan

Bishop, Episcopal Diocese of Pittsburgh, AND

Moderator, Network of Anglican Communion Dioceses and Parishes
