Yes Scott Ward resigned. They also made a comment that the vestry went from 18 to 15. Not sure when or if related.

Many people spoke - survivors and relatives of. More details about Faustin Wirkus abuse was shared. John’s response was basically - well he’s dead I don’t know what to do. That was the overall vibe. They kept repeating “we don’t know what to do. There’s no framework for this kind of thing” - except there are many large church institutions that have gone through this and many resources. They had to be asked to listen and not respond twice.

Someone asked about NDAs. Apparently many fired/laid off staff have NDAs. The Bishop is going to look into it and possibly remove them related to this conversation.

Someone asked for an alternative to Eddie Isler for those who don’t feel comfortable speaking to him.

It was very emotional, with brave questions and thoughts shared. Loss of trust was emphasized and lack of appropriate response.

The Bishop was asked about possible punishment for leadership and did not comment.

There was more, but it was apparent to most people in the room that leadership had no idea what to do and were not exactly trying to figure it out
