Lambeth Conference – Day 2

At our Retreat Day in Canterbury Cathedral we heard a challenging address from Prof Esther Mombo (of Kenya, and once a member of the SEC): “ We should recognise … our complicity in perpetuating the spread of the virus of hegemony in all its manifestations: racial injustice, capitalism and economic inequalities, and sexual and gender based violence, to name but a few … The world is waiting and watching. They wait expectantly for a Church that looks like the faith it professes.”

Grace and peace, Bp Ian

 

A day of retreat and prayer, in a holy and beautiful place. During the day I’ll be praying through our Diocesan Cycle of Prayer (available on our website), and if you can please pray with me for clergy and congregations.

Grace and peace, Bp Ian

 

DAY 1

As one of the Bishops gathering today at Canterbury I (like my SEC colleagues, I imagine) would like to support and identify with what our TEC friends are saying here. As well as being unjust and untrue, the attempt to reject full inclusion of LGBT+ people in the Church is a distraction from vital issues we have to engage with, for the world and for the Church.
Thank you for all your messages of support, and your prayers for all the Bishops.
Bishop Ian

 

Lambeth Conference – Day 1

After the Welcome session with the Archbishop of Canterbury (pictured below), Bishops met in the groups we had been meeting with by Zoom during the past year to prepare for the Conference.

My group, drawn from countries as different as Canada, USA, South Africa, South Sudan, and Scotland, agreed that we want these 2 weeks to be about dialogue not debate, and about understanding the difference between being in Communion and being in agreement (something the world as well as the Church needs to understand). We don’t need to agree or implement ‘calls’ or ‘resolutions,’ we need to help each other understand what living the Gospel means in our very different contexts.

I met many old and new friends today, including among others Bishop Keerthisiri Fernando (Sri Lanka) and Bishop Lusa Nsenga-Ngoy (Willesden, England), pictured below, together with the Welcome Session of the Conference.

Grace and peace, Bp Ian

At the Lambeth Conference, Day 1: The draft on ‘Human Dignity’ has been revised and now recognises different understandings in the Communion. This is more truthful and hopeful for everyone who looks for inclusion for all, and I and other SEC bishops will support it.
Bishop Ian
