When Presiding Bishop Katharine Jefferts Schori visited Pittsburgh last week, she made the following comments about Anglican unity, given the high tension between some of the provinces, the Episcopal Church and Canterbury.
Ann Rodgers of the "Pittsburgh Post-Gazette" garnered these answers from questions she asked the Presiding Bishop.
Q. Do you think the Anglican Communion will hold together?
A. Yes. It's stronger than it was 10 years ago. There are more missional partnerships and more relationships and they are deeper than they were 10 or 15 years ago. People go back and forth between different part of the communion to serve God's mission and they are learning more about each other's s contexts. They are learning what it's like to be a Christian in Pakistan and Bangladesh and what it's like to be a Christian in Los Angeles or New York or Western Kansas. That is how we come to know each other and how we come to be more effective parts of the same body of Christ.
