Hutchison reflects on Primates’ Meeting

Archbishop Andrew Hutchison, Primate of the Anglican Church of Canada, offers personal reflections and comments on the recent meeting of the Primates of the Anglican Communion on the next segment of the Webcast +Andrew: Conversations with the Primate.

The Primates’ Meeting, which was held in Belfast, concluded with a request that the Canadian and U.S. churches voluntarily withdraw their members from the Anglican Consultative Council until the next Lambeth conference of bishops in 2008. The Primates also agreed not to interfere in each other’s provinces.

In the webcast, which will be posted Thursday, March 10, Archbishop Hutchison comments on both these outcomes of the meeting and reflects on what they mean for the future of the church.

The webcasts are taped and produced by Anglican Video and financially assisted by the Anglican Foundation.
