CMS meets USPG


The USPG (United Society for the Propagation of the Gospel) General Secretary, the Rt Revd Bishop Michael Doe is currently on his first visit to Sri Lanka and was invited by the Colombo Diocese Cathedral Institute to give a lecture on 'Anglicans Around the World'.


The lecture was well received and gave a thorough analysis of the present situation concerning the future of the Anglican Communion and the drawing up of an 'Anglican covenant'.
Bishop Michael reflected further on what it meant to be 'in Communion' and indicated that there was a need for Unity through hospitality, Authority through Inter-relatedness, Truth through scripture illuminated by traditon and reason and finally that covenant meant 'travelling with differences'.
