The Open Episcopal Church in Scotland

An Independent Catholic Community Church

A Registered Charity: SC037428

Attack on Our Church

It has come to our notice that people are receiving communications from Archbishop Jonathan Blake, denigrating our Scottish Church and in particular its Bishop. We must point out that Mr Blake has no jurisdiction over our Church which is totally independent from his jurisdiction, and that his extravagant and defamatory comments on our Bishop are totally without substance. We ask that anyone receiving such a defamatory communication from Mr Blake will contact our Church Authorities at diocesan.secretary@openiscopalchurch.org.uk so that we may give a full, true and clear refutation

The Office of the Scottish Charity Regulator (OSCR) is the only statutory authority that regulates us and they are fully aware of Mr Blake's campaign against us. You may verify our legal status and independent management structure by visiting their website where you will also find further contact details for us

Donations may be made here towards our appeal for funds to defend ourselves through the courts
