The link below takes you to an interesting article. It's about a community of Episcopal nuns and their loss of faith in the liberal "reformation" of their Church. It is significant and sad. Another rare piece of Anglican tradition that is about to get rarer, thanks to TEC.

I found the quote from Mother Christina to be especially telling: “People who did not know us looked at us as if we were in agreement with what had been going on (in the Episcopal Church),” she said. “By staying put and not doing anything, we were sending a message which was not correct.”
That certainly speaks to me, and I continue to pray to find out what God wants for me in my own relationship with this Church, but if seven years of prayer and a devotion far beyond mine have led these sisters to this conclusion, perhaps they have an important message for many orthodox Episcopalians.

What to do?
What should a practicing Episcopalian do?
The choices of course are several.
The Good Sisters made quite a jump.
They did not make the easiest choice.
Or maybe they did.
