To the Laos - To the People of God: Tensions in the Communion?

Dear People of God 
 

Addressing a news conference in Canterbury.

Welcome to 2016!

Walking Together in the Service of God in the World

The meeting of Anglican Primates, the senior bishops of the 38 Anglican Provinces, joined by the Archbishop of the Anglican Church of North America, took place in Canterbury between Monday 11 January and Friday 15 January at the invitation of Justin Welby, the Archbishop of Canterbury. The first morning was spent in prayer and fasting.
