The irony is thick…

[Bob Smietana @bobsmietana]

The ACNA was essentially founded by former Episcopal leaders who didn't want anyone to tell them what to do. And no one of their bishop doesn't want anyone in ACNA to tell him what to do. And they might have the church version of a civil war

If you read nothing else today, or tomorrow, or any day, PLEASE, members of @The_ACNA, read this.

[Whitney Evans Harrison @Wevans0987]

I do not have adequate words to add anything to what Cherin has said so clearly below. Read and weep.

[John Perrine @john__perrine]

Well said.

[Arlie Coles @ArlieColes]

This little girl has more power in the tip of her pinky than any of the grasping full-grown men we see spiraling now. Guys, you supposedly say the Mag daily; don't you know God has a habit of putting down the mighty & exalting the humble and meek? Repent. Get right.

[John Perrine @john__perrine]

I can only admire the resilient faith of someone who has endured so much suffering, ridiculous hypocrisy and slander, yet who can still see Jesus. Lord have mercy.

[Cherin Marie @cherinmarie2]

Bp. Stewart Ruch has called today for a @MidwestAnglican Diocese-wide day of fasting, in light of recent accusations of usurpation of power against Ruch made by @The_ACNA Abp. Foley Beach.

Today, June 9, also happens to be my daughter’s 14th B-day. 🧵

Confused by what's happening in ACNA? I stayed up until 2am parsing it out Wednesday night so you didn't have to: https://t.co/b7iQTDvhTq

. @theACNA’s silence on sexual abuse investigations is unacceptable. The response I received when asking questions about the reports & discipline was also unacceptable.

How can we clergy be expected to sit tight and trust a process that has been so mishandled already? #ACNAtoo

[Whitney Evans Harrison @Wevans0987]

This thread is damning re the #ACNAtoo saga involving @MidwestAnglican and @ChurchRez.

Please read the whole thing, but below are some points that particularly stood out to me:
🧵

[John Perrine @john__perrine]

@EricJDirksen This is brilliant and worthy perhaps of all pastoral work in general as well as sermons specifically

[Kristen McKnight @kristenmcknight]

Is this how a "Christian attorney" in @MidwestAnglican should be speaking about a survivor of rape? I think not. This ought to make any one who cares about abuse survivors livid. @The_ACNA @ChurchRez

[Joanna 🍃 @ladyjessicahaze]

I recently received this copy of an email @MidwestAnglican Chancellor Charlie Philbrick sent Bp. Stewart Ruch on Feb. 23, 2021.

About me.

Consider this a case study in religious institutions mangling the term “independent” and maligning the people they are called to protect. 🧵

[Jackson Ford he/him @JacksonTFord]

1/ I want to riff on this for a minute, for the UMWD folk. This is article important!!! There has been a tremendous lack of transparency, fishy portrayals, and bizarre behavior coming out of the leadership of both the diocese and investigation committees.

@Seth_Troutt @taylorswift13 Would it surprise you to know
I thought the same thing, except of course -@taylorswift13, augustinian

[Katie Robichaud @katierouquine]

..."It is noteworthy that five professionally credentialed women, all volunteers, have resigned citing strikingly similar concerns. This should alarm you."

#ACNAtoo @ArchbishopFoley @frandrewgross @The_ACNA

[Scot McKnight @scotmcknight]

I’m grieved, but esp over the name-calling and demonizing of the survivors by the Bishop’s Council at Church of the Resurrection. ⁦@The_ACNA⁩ https://t.co/zLa4JLh2qZ

[Christen Price @Christen_P5]

I have the utmost respect for Ms. Keuning. And the parallels between her experience and ours working w/ #ACNA leadership are eerie.

[Kristen McKnight @kristenmcknight]

Thank you to Helen Keuning for her honesty and truth-telling. This is a lot to take in, but please read carefully. There is so much to grieve in @The_ACNA. I'm losing any semblance of faith in @The_ACNA leaders. The lies and deceit are just too much. Lord have mercy.

[ACNAtoo @ACNAtoo]

Helen Keuning, former member of @The_ACNA @MidwestAnglican Bishop’s Council (BC), breaks her silence to explain why she resigned: https://t.co/Yo0QeJE8Vt
