�I want to live, and by God’s grace, to die an Anglican. Will you find a way for me?�

So ends Diane Knippers’ moving and eloquent testimony to the Lambeth Commission.

She begins by pleading, “I want to remain an Anglican. I am an Anglican. I believe what most Anglicans believe. But today, I am an Episcopalian in name only. I cannot remain in the Episcopal Church in its present state. I pray that you will find a way for me to remain an Anglican, but not an Episcopalian. I beg you for this.�

As I’ve stated before, the Lambeth Commission and the Archbishop of Canterbury must provide a place in the Anglican Communion for North American orthodox Anglicans such as Diane Knippers.

Read her whole testimony.
