Anglican Church in North America Declared Partner Province by the Global South

Anglican Primates of the Global South, a coalition representing the majority of the world’s Anglicans, met October 14-16, 2015 in Cairo, Egypt.

During the meeting, the Anglican Church in North America was declared to be an official partner province of the Global South. In addition, Archbishop Foley Beach, who earlier in the week had preached at All Saints Anglican Cathedral in Cairo, was seated as a member of the Global South Primates Council with both voice and vote; participating fully in the meeting.

I personally love these developments. I so wish our province (ACSA) can take a stand because so far they are one foot in GAFCON and another foot on the liberal camp.

 

Thanks be to God!!

 

Is the Anglican Church of North America different to Episcopalian Church?

 

Aidan,

The ACNA was formed largely by Episcopalians who were unhappy with the revisionist tendencies in the Episcopal Church in the United States and Canada. Since its formation however, considerable numbers of people who were never in the Episcopal Church have joined (myself included).
