The Elevator Speech

In this episode, we will take a closer look at the elevator speech which asks the question, "How would you describe the Independent Sacramental Movement to someone who has no idea what it is?" A nice succinct definition of a complex subject.  The Independent Sacramental Movement is an incredibly diverse autonomous movement with hundreds of micro-denominations rooted in apostolic succession and celebrating the seven sacraments instituted by Jesus Christ.  That's a succinct elevator speech…

But don't take my word for it.  I have compiled several others such as,

Archbishop Alan Kemp, the founder and first Presiding Bishop of the Ascension Alliance.

Bishop Brian Stanford, with the Gnostic Catholic Union.

Bishop Carol Vaccariello, an Independent Catholic Bishop and United Church of Christ pastor.

Bishop Chris Carpenter, Presiding Bishop of the Reformed Catholic Church.

Father David Jones, with the Celtic Catholic Church USA.

Bishop Gregory Godsey, Presiding Bishop of the Old Catholic Churches International.

Father Jerry Maynard, with the Order of Mary Magdalene.

Bishop Joseph Menna, the Prior General and Bishop of the Augustinians of the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
