To: Alec Smith, Anne Kessler, "Bp. Stewart Ruch", Charlie Philbrick, Eirik Olsen, Helen Keuning, Katherine Ruch, Steve Williamson

All,

Because some new people have been brought into various emails, and because this involves people from across the diocese, I wanted to make a few introductions so we know who's on this core team thus far:

  • Bp. Stewart and Katherine - everyone knows

  • Canon Eirik Olsen - Exec Pastor of Greenhouse Movement, Rector of Light of Christ in Kenosha, WI

  • Dean Steve Williamson - Cathedral Dean of Resurrection

  • Anne Kessler - aka our "Champion" - Exec Dir of Operations at Rez and Diocesan Treasurer, daughter of retired lawyer, attends Rez

  • Helen Keuning - veteran Bishop's Council representative (similar to Sr. Warden), homeschool Mom, and former attorney, attends Church of the Cross in MN

  • Charlie Philbrick - Diocesan Chancellor and attorney, attends Christ Church Madison in WI and former Rez member

  • Alec Smith - Judicial law clerk, former military criminal defence attorney, attends Rez

These are other diocesan leaders/clergy who may be brought into various email threads at some point:

  • Rez's Pastoral Staff Team - NONE of which are included on this email thread but all of whom are involved in one way or another with the larger pastoral situation:

    • Vicar Brett Crull

    • Deacon Margie Fawcett

    • Deacon Valerie McIntyre

    • Pst. Meghan Robins

    • [redacted] - [sentence redacted for survivor privacy]

[paragraph redacted for privacy]

Charlie, Alec and Bp. Stewart:

For the 9 of us, going forward, it will be helpful to know who from this "core" group should be included in which communications involving Ms. Jo, the R family, or any victims. Should drafts be handled differently from the actual communication that's sent (ie drafts go to this group, actual email cc Bp. Stewart only)? Or should we handle each communication separately?
