Progressive
Episcopalians
of
Pittsburgh
is a group of Episcopal clergy and laity
dedicated to maintaining the health and
unity of The Episcopal Church, including
the Diocese of Pittsburgh, as a
theologically diverse expression of
Anglicanism in America. PEP seeks both a
church and a society that strive for
justice and peace among all people, and
that respect the dignity of every human
being.
PEP is a member of
Via Media USA, an alliance of
similar groups dedicated to the
traditional Anglicanism of The Episcopal
Church. We are not liberal or
conservative, not Evangelical or
Anglo-Catholic, not low-, broad-, or
high-church. We are all those things and
more: we are one in our Lord Jesus
Christ.
Time to Renew
August 9, 2011.
It is time to renew PEP membership or become a PEP
member. Memberships
run from September 1 to August 31 the following year.
PEP is no longer opposing the schemes of an ambitious
bishop, but PEP is still necessary. PEP vice president
Lionel Deimel made a case for PEP in his recent
letter to PEP members and friends.
You can join PEP on-line or print out your membership
form and send it to PEP by mail. Click
