If you scroll down the ACNA Assembly website, there are lots of helpful factsheets:
# Fact Sheet: Who We Are
# Fact Sheet: What We Stand For
# Fact Sheet: Our Genesis
# Fact Sheet: ACNA Assembly Speakers
# Fact Sheet: ACNA Dioceses and Delegates
# Fact Sheet: Bishop Robert Duncan
# Fact Sheet: Glossary
Note that the ACNA Dioceses & Delegates fact sheet has ASA figures for each diocese
I also notice in the Assembly schedule an event for non-delegates titled “The Influence of Islam in North America.” This is a far-thinking item to present. One of the reasons, among many others, to promote the traditional Christian faith is the coming need to counter Islam with the truth. People (many of them) who believe nothing will grasp for belief in anything.
A friend staying with me had the CBS morning news show on today and they had a bit on the ACNA meeting. The lead off line was something like: a new denomination is forming, and already excluding whole groups of people. The actual report said that they were excluding gays and women from the clergy (not accurate in the latter case, I know). The funny part was as they read the report, the visuals were of Bp. Gene Robinson and a woman I didn’t recognize.

Yes, Katherine, of course that caught my eye too and I was very glad to see it!
