29 July 2009 • Persistent link: iarccum.org/?p=970

[Vatican City] Vatican concerns about how some recent decisions of the U.S. Episcopal Church will impact the search for full Anglican-Roman Catholic unity are echoed in a reflection by Anglican Archbishop Rowan Williams of Canterbury, the head of the Anglican Communion.

Writing July 27 about the Episcopal Church’s recent general convention, Archbishop Williams repeatedly referred to the need to keep in mind the ecumenical implications of local church decisions in addition to their impact on the unity of the Anglican Communion as a whole.

Archbishop Williams’ reflection, titled “Communion, Covenant and Our Anglican Future,” was published on the archbishop’s Web site at rowanwilliams.archbishopofcanterbury.org/.
