Gafcon meets in Cairo to consider invitation to Canterbury
Author:
George Conger
Members of the primates council of the GAFCON movement
met yesterday in Cairo, sources tell Anglican Ink, and are understood to have
discussed their response to the Archbishop of Canterbury’s invitation to the
January primates gathering scheduled for Canterbury. A source familiar with
their deliberations said they would be communicating their decision first to
Archbishop Justin Welby before any statement would be given to the media. He
further noted that he could neither confirm nor deny that a decision had been
reached, though it is understood the coalition of conservative archbishops have
agreed to act as one. A spokesman for Archbishop Foley Beach confirmed the ACNA
primate had preached on Sunday at All Saints Cathedral. Sources in Cairo report
that other members of the primates council had gathered in Cairo before the
start of the Fifth South to South Anglican Conference scheduled to begin today
in Carthage, Tunisia. A statement is expected shortly from the conference
organizers explaining the reason for the cancellation. However, unconfirmed
reports from those scheduled to attend the meeting state it was cancelled due
to an unspecified security threat.– See more at: http://www.anglicanink.com/article/gafcon-meets-cairo-consider-invitation-canterbury#sthash.4VY0SqO3.dpuf
