To His Grace Abba Youssef, to all Nashville's priests, and the Coptic community:
 
 
Yesterday, I sent an email rejecting the ordination of the new priest. I still stand by my opinion, but I learned that the language of the email was not appropriate for everyone. For that, I do apologize for the language that was contained in the email. If anyone was offended or mad at me because of that, I do apologize, but I still stand by my opinion and will not change it.
 
 
Thank you all, and please pass it to others.
