Yes, I was their Tom, Mark, Sarah, and the Satan calling Guy! Did I sit next to you all? Or was I in the Back of the room? Did I speak out, or keep silent? You will never know. Sucks to not know who you can trust. Besides I went out and talked in the Parking Lot, and E-mailed people, and called people on the phone, and oh my I am Blogging about it now! Who the tarnation are you people to tell me or any other person "these are the rules" No Parking Lot Discussions, No Phone Calls, No Blog's, No E-mails! It is still a Free Country and if you did not notice once again I will spell it out for you "Y O U A R E N O T M Y M O T H E R!" So to set the record right I have broken all your rules and the next conversation I will have with others is with the Bishop. So good luck in stopping me and the others, you all forget what the definition of VESTRY is. But I am happy to give you a lesson as my Professor wife with a Major in English at a Prestigious School tells her students:
Vestry - (n) vestry (in the Protestant Episcopal Church: a committee elected by the congregation to work with the churchwardens in managing the temporal affairs of the church).
So, Vestry, (Senior Warden / Junior Warden you were forced on us), based on the information above you all are elected by the Parish Members and as such "Work for us on our behalf to manage the Churches Business" But in the case of this Vestry (not all members are grouped into this) you all will not Stand up to this Rector and tell him the Parish is fed up with the non Rectoring (need to ask my wife on this one) and complete lack of Leadership, Shepherding, and most important our inability to trust the Rector. That he needs to Resign and allow us to begin fresh and without him. So without further deliberation I am writing this Blog, Calling all I know, Talking in the Parking Lot, and will E-mail this to many people. So arrest me Senior Warden, or Sargent (Junior Warden) Major! But Freedom of Speech is a GOD Given Right, and protected in the 1st Amendment of which you cannot take away.
On the meeting or Non Meeting - You see why this blog is so useful. No one spoke up at all and those that did were staged questions and the decree from the Senior & Junior Wardens were very clear. Speak Up (nothing too controversial) or do not speak up and only praise the Rector. Having Mary Glaspool was not useful. Why not allow us to speak with her or another member alone without the Rector, Senior & Junior Warden? Too Afraid of the outcome that they people that want the rector gone are many and willing to open up if they think the Rector and his Vestry will not rain down fire and punish them? Of course you would do nothing like that, so that is why we will take this directly to the Bishop. So bye-Bye for now I have to pack for Baltimore, as I drive too slow as I am old you know and we are set in our ways. Luckily I can type (not too well) but I can use the PC to communicate even at my age.
PS: So Tom Double-Dog-Daring guy, you can unfriend me all you want as I unfriended you years ago when you pushed to sell a beloved Rectory. So Boo to you too. Also I was never one to back off a dare "AT THE AGE OF 5" Grow Up Tommy Boy.
