What is going on with the Bishop in Pittsburg? He is charged with "abandonment of communion or discipline of this church." Does "this church" mean the Episcopal Church USA or does it mean the Anglican Communion?
Apologies to Woody Guthrie,
This church is your church, this church is my church
From California to the New York Island
From the Redwood Forest to the Gulf Stream waters
This church was made for you and me.
As I went walking that ribbon of highway
I saw above me that endless skyway
I saw below me that golden valley
This church was made for you and me.
I roamed and I rambled and I followed my footsteps
To the sparkling sands of her diamond deserts
While All around me a voice was sounding
Saying this church was made for you and me.
When the sun came shining, and I was strolling
And the wheat fields waving and the dust clouds rolling
A voice was chanting, As the fog was lifting,
This church was made for you and me.
There was a big high wall there that tried to stop me;
Sign was painted, it said private property;
But on the back side it didn't say nothing;
That side was made for you and me.
This church is your church, this church is my church
From California to the New York Island
From the Redwood Forest to the Gulf Stream waters
This church was made for you and me.
