- "The Joint Lutheran Anglican Committee [sic i.e. Commission] is commending a joint statement entitled 'Memorandum of Mutual Recognition of Relations of Full Communion' to the governing bodies of its four churches, Anglican co-chair Dean Peter Wall told CoGS. The statement urges the Anglican Church of Canada, the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Canada (ELCIC), the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) and The Episcopal Church (TEC) to 'express their commitment to full communion relationship with the other three churches so that the exchange of ministries .. may be more easily facilitated', according to a document that was provided to CoGS members".
