I believe the number of TEC dioceses with under 3000 ASA is 30% or higher.

I find it interesting that as he speaks of growth and the caption lists 51 churches and 18,000 communicants the latest diocesan ASA is barely 5000. Hopefully he has other reasons for optimism. Blessings

The Episcopal Café seeks to be an independent voice, reporting and reflecting on the Episcopal Church and the Anglican tradition. The Café is not a platform of advocacy, but it does aim to tell the story of the church from the perspective of Progressive Christianity. Our collective sympathy, as the Café, lies with the project of widening the circle of inclusion within the church and empowering all the baptized for the role to which they have been called as followers of Christ.

The opinions expressed at the Café are those of individual contributors, and, unless otherwise noted, should not be interpreted as official statements of a parish, diocese or other organization. The art and articles that appear here remain the property of their creators.
