GAFCON 'petitions' passing 1,000 mark

The two petitions for individuals to sign, showing support for the Jerusalem Statement and Declaration, which were set up following the meeting at All Souls Langham Place on July 1st are now both passing the 1,000 mark.

One petition is for English residents (though a handful of signatories clearly haven't read the instructions), the other is for those outside England.

There is a third petition for organizations, including Parochial Church Councils, who have passed a motion wording support for the Declaration and Statement, which has collected nine signatures so far. These are:

St John's Lindow PCC, Cheshire
All Saints Little Shelford PCC, Cambridgeshire
St George's Becontree PCC, Essex
Christ Episcopal Church Denver, USA
Iglesia Cristo del Mar PV Jalisco Mx, USA
Baton Rouge Area Anglican Fellowship, USA
Little Brothers of the Trinity, USA
Elswick Parish Church, Newcastle Upon Tyne
ACN/FIFNA, USA

The petitions may be found at the links below. If you haven't done so, please sign them and forward to your friends:

Individuals in solidarity with the GAFCON Jerusalem Statement and Declaration (English residents)

Individuals living outside England in solidarity with the GAFCON Jerusalem Statement and Declaration

Anglican groups and organizations in solidarity with the GAFCON Jerusalem Statement and Declaration
