>> Greetings All-
>> This group came together the Sunday after Thanksgiving in a house meeting with about 10 or 12 Christ Church parishioners gathering to discuss their frustration, pain and concern over the letter they had received from their Dean a few days prior. That letter described Bishop Bauerschmidt's position on gay marriage in the diocese and it struck a chord with many of these parishioners.
>> We talked for about an hour and came up with the name  All Sacraments for All People or ASAP. We made some notes of things to do including composing a mission statement and reaching out to other parishes to join in our discussion and work towards finding a solution. We started a email listserv that evening to facilitate communication among the group of parishioners. That was on Sunday. By Tuesday, 25 or 30 more people joined the group and by weeks' end they were over 100 members of the email list serve ASAP.  This is an amazing outpouring of interest for All Sacraments for All People. Thanks be to God!
>> Clearly there is a groundswell of interest that needs to be addressed within our diocese. There are many people frustrated with the positions of Bishop Bauerschmidt and are looking for answers. We are encouraged that there are others interested in this endeavor and we want to harness the energy and commitment of those on this list to effect positive change.
>> To that end, we need a mission statement. Something that encapsulates what our goals are and how we wish to act. We also are looking for people to act as a representatives of each parish in the diocese so we can be united in our communication.
>> We would like to plan a face to face meeting that would take place soon. We need to come together and discuss an action plan and decide how to move forward. If any church would like to offer space in which to meet that would be fantastic. Please let us know if any church would like to offer space in which to meet.

> Gibson, Henry Walker who is the Senior Warden at St. Ann's e-mailed me last week that they are in the process of crafting a resolution to present to the Diocesan Convention in January opposing the Bishop's action.  It has to be submitted by tomorrow to be included in Convention business.  I hope to see a copy when they are finished.  I am copying Henry on this e-mail so that all efforts can be coordinated.  They want other congregations involved as well.  Certainly Fletch and I are opposed to what the Bishop is trying to do.

> This message is in response to several people that have considered changing their pledge in response to Bishop Bauerschmidt's position on gay marriage in the Diocese of Tennessee. Your clergy and vestry need to hear from you, in order to gauge the impact on their fiscal plans and to craft a means by which they can honor your request not to contribute to the Diocese.
> For many of you, including those at Christ Church, your vestries are formulating next year's budget and planning on changes for 2016. Time is of the essence to communicate your concerns to your clergy and vestry, so please take time today and write your clergy and vestry members to explain your intentions.
