What are Via Media Dallas concerns about the Network?
The stated aim of the Network is to deny, under certain conditions, The Episcopal Church’s place as a member of the Anglican Communion. The Network itself requires signing a rather detailed statement of beliefs as a condition of membership. We believe this to be un-Episcopalian and un-Anglican. The Network’s Charter includes the Constitution of ECUSA, but not its Canons. Our life together as a community of faith is grounded in the saving work of Jesus Christ and expressed in the principles of the Chicago-Lambeth Quadrilateral (BCP, page 877): Holy Scripture, the historic Creeds of the church; the two dominical Sacraments (baptism and Holy Communion), and the Historic Episcopate.
