- Notes
- "As the outgoing primate, my primary task is to call the church to prayer. In the first instance, I ask you to pray for the bishops and for wisdom in discerning whom they will nominate for the primacy. Pray for those who wrestle with that invitation and for those who accept it. Pray, too, for their families and for their dioceses". "He or she is called to an office of huge responsibility yet great privilege: leading our church in God's mission in these times; visiting all of our dioceses and territories; pastorally caring for our bishops and nurturing them for their apostolic leadership; working in a particularly close relationship with the national Indigenous Anglican bishop; representing our church throughout the Anglican Communion; strengthening our relations with over churches, particularly in Canada; writing and speaking prophetically to the issues of our times; forging relationships with people of other faith traditions and all people of goodwill dedicated to the building of a truly just, healthy and peaceful world".
