A Registered Charity: SC037428
Welcome to The Open Episcopal Church in Scotland. We are independent of any other church and have no relationship to The Open Episcopal Church in England & Wales. We are Old Catholic in tradition and succession, and serve the Scottish people in a modern and liberal way
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
Read here an Open Letter from the
Trustees about this continuing situation
Donations may be made here towards our
appeal for funds to defend ourselves through the courts
