INVITATION TO TRADITIONAL EPISCOPALIANS ---
Bishop says Episcopal Church enters into apostasy.
Dateline: Front Royal, Virginia, April 5, 2007
Conservative Bishop Larry W. Johnson has vowed to welcome
Episcopalians seeking to affiliate with the Anglican Church of Virginia and
Dioceses of the Anglican Church International Communion across the
USA. "ACIC is a body in Christ that has not abandoned the historic and
true faith as held in the Anglican Church for centuries," said Johnson last
evening after the announcement by the press of the approval of the new
gay bishop of New Hampshire. "Recent action to affirm the election of a
practicing homosexual as a Bishop in the Episcopal Church was expected,"
said Bishop Johnson, "by this action they have renounced Biblical
teachings."
Johnson was made a Bishop three years ago for the purpose of creating a
traditional Church in Virginia for Anglicans. Two years ago the Anglican
Church International Communion was formed with Johnson serving as the
first President. The ACIC consists of Bishops from America, Australia,
India and Haiti. Major growth is expected over the next year, according to
Johnson.
Those wanting join the Anglican Church of Virginia or dioceses of ACIC
should contact Bishop Johnson by email. Where new parishes need to be
formed to serve the people Bishop Johnson is ready to assist. A new
seminary will train laity and new priests in Virginia with other conservative
Bishops in other diocese ready also.
