From: Interfaith Working Group Subject: IWG Inquirer Letter Date: Sat, 9 Aug 1997 18:33:30 -0400 (EDT) The following went out on IWG letterhead listing 10 congregations and religious organizations and 44 clergy from 14 faiths and denominations. If you are in the general Philadelphia area and represent a congregation or religious organization or are clergy, let us know if you want to be added - all faiths are welcome. We will also be happy to help start similar organizations in other areas. August 9, 1997 The Philadelphia Inquirer PO Box 8263 Phila., PA 19101 Dear Editors: Robert V. Speck's letter about the inherent futility of reforming the church from within was historically inaccurate. If reformers working for equality for women and sexual minorities within the church were not succeeding, Rev. Moyer and other "Conservative Episcopalians" would not be "in revolt." Sincerely, Barbara Purdom Christopher Purdom Interfaith Working Group Coordinators -- Interfaith Working Group Religious organizations, congregations iwg@libertynet.org and clergy supporting gay rights, http://www.libertynet.org/~iwg/ reproductive freedom, and the 215-235-3050 separation of church and state.
