Additional comments

I would like to see our denomination, our ‘branch of the Jesus movement’, to be known as the path to forgiveness. In many ways, The Episcopal Church needs to grow and expand, and by using the path to forgiveness, we can bring more into the fold to feed the hungry, clothe the unclothed and love all of our neighbors as we love ourselves.
