- Notes
- The author, Communications Director for the Anglican Communion, and current editor of 'Anglican World', reflects on "how communication impacts communion" and the history of the Communion's work "to engage in communication that promotes communion". In 1878 [N.B. article refers to 1848 Lambeth Conference but this should read 1878] the bishops expressed a need for "some centre of communication among the Churches in England, Ireland, Scotland, America, India, the colonies and elsewhere". "[T]he 1948 Lambeth Conference commissioned a twice-yearly publication to help 'maintain and strengthen the bonds of affection between bishops of the Communion'. That magazine, 'Pan-Anglican' was eventually replaced by 'Anglican World' magazine, aimed at an ordained and lay membership".
