- Prologue
- The Primate and the Archbishop of Algoma had represented the Canadian Church at the first meeting of the Wider Episcopal Fellowship held at Lambeth last Spring. The Archbishop of Algoma reported that all except four of the Provinces of the Anglican Communion had been represented among those present. Non-Anglicans had been there from almost every form of episcopal Church. The conference had issued little information for the general public but the value of the Conference in the development of understanding and fellowship in Christ had been considerable.
- Text of motion
- "That we express our gratitude to the Archbishop of Algoma for his report of the Wider Episcopal Fellowship held at Lambeth, and request him to make it available to be mimeographed and circulated to the members of the House of Bishops."
