It is a matter of serious concern that a Bishop of the Church of England, who is one of those \u201cordained to be shepherds of Christ\u2019s flock and guardians of the faith of the apostles\u201d\u009d (Common Worship Ordinal) should describe that definition as \u201clousy.\u201d\u009d \u201d\u02dc<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/saintmartinchurch.com\/?page_id=197\">The Rev\u2019d Canon, Fr Victor Bullock, Vicar of Fenny Stratford<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/stjameshanslope.org\">The Rev\u2019d Canon, Fr Gary Ecclestone, Vicar of Hanslope &#038; Castlethorpe<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.stmargaretiverheath.org.uk\">The Rev\u2019d Fr Andrew Montgomerie, Rector of Iver Heath (and trustee of Prayer Book Society)<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/parishstonystratfordcalverton.com\/parish-staff-and-contacts\">The Revd Fr Ross Northing, Rector of Stony Stratford with Calverton<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>This very public move by key Anglo-Catholics appears to utterly undermine Wilson\u2019s claim during <a href=\"http:\/\/davidould.net\/?p=7900\">a number of radio interview this past Sunday<\/a> that opposition to his public statements was limited to a small number of objectors. On the contrary, I understand that a letter is circulating which has a growing number of signatories. This isn\u2019t going away, in fact quite the opposite.
