Wayne, you lay out the nightmare that I think is likely to happen in 2019. I’m Bud Tillinghast, an EI fellow traveller and was an LCX participant in the Bay Area. I’m a retired member of the Cal-Nev Conference and a friend of Karen Oliveto.
Are you aware of United Methodist Insight, edited by the former editor of the U M Review out of Dallas, Cynthia Astle? At the point when you have received and included the thoughts of your colleagues, I would be happy to forward your ‘dossier’ to Cynthia and Karen, or put you in contact with them.
Grappling with Peace,
Bud
