(Note: Some of the evidence is only available to members of the Court.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Together, on behalf of the College of Bishops and the Executive Committee of the Anglican Church<br>in North America, we want to express our deep regret for the confusion and hurt caused by recent<br>attempts to air concerns of the Court in the public sphere. We are saddened that the parties expressing<br>concern did not utilize any of the canonical provisions designed to address them. We remain<br>confident in the Court\u2019s ability to bring these matters to just resolution. Further, we find no evidence<br>to suggest that the Archbishop or members of his staff acted in any way that violates or compromises<br>the proceedings that are active before the court.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/anglicanchurch.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/FINAL_Joint-Statement-from-COB-ExComm.docx.pdf\">Read it all<\/a>.<\/p><blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">ACNA joint statement from the College of Bishops and Executive Committee rejecting charges of misconduct against Archbishop Wood and his staff <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/8UFOu1LTvb\">https:\/\/t.co\/8UFOu1LTvb<\/a> via <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Anglican?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@Anglican<\/a> Ink \u00a9 2025<\/p>&mdash; George Conger (@GeorgeConger8) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/GeorgeConger8\/status\/1950228265085653359?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">July 29, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote> <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In response to recent allegations of inappropriate actions by the Archbishop, the provincial staff andChancellor regarding matters before the Court for the Trial of a Bishop, the College of Bishops andthe Executive Committee of the Anglican Church in North America<span class=\"ellipsis\">&hellip;<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"read-more\"><a href=\"https:\/\/kendallharmon.net\/?p=138968\">Read more &#8250;<\/a><\/div>\n<p><!-- end of .read-more --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":794,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[63],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-138968","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-anglican-church-in-north-america-acna"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kendallharmon.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/138968","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kendallharmon.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kendallharmon.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kendallharmon.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/794"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kendallharmon.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=138968"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/kendallharmon.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/138968\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":138972,"href":"https:\/\/kendallharmon.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/138968\/revisions\/138972"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kendallharmon.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=138968"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kendallharmon.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=138968"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kendallharmon.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=138968"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
