And, for the record, there are nearly as many Episcopalians continuing to attend the diocesan cathedral than there are in all the parishes that departed.

The name of the diocese, for quite some time, has been "Diocese of Quincy." Actually, I have always known it by that, even going back to childhood, although I would allow that "Episcopal" might have appeared in the legal name in those days. Maybe someone more familiar with its history can tell us when, if ever, Quincy used "Episcopal" in its legal name.<br /> However the headline appeared, it is not a matter of the diocese using the word "Episcopal"- something that would have been evident had people gone to the diocesan website before laying accusations.<br /> On topic- It is good to see the diocese formalizing their relationship with ACNA. Did the "700 parish" figure for ACNA already include Qunicy's parishes, or are these new additions to the total?tjmcmahonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23327221.post-18733311956185612572009-10-30T09:57:36.884-04:002009-10-30T09:57:36.884-04:00The Diocese of Quincy is not a new entity;our lega...The Diocese of Quincy is not a new entity;our legal name was changed several years before litigation began with TEC.
