The Bishop of Virginia Writes his Diocese

by Matt Kennedy

The Archbishop of Canterbury did indicate that CANA is not a "provincial" branch of the Communion. But he did not say that CANA was not a "part" of the Anglican Communion. In fact, he recognized that CANA exists as a "missionary diocese within the province of Nigeria" which is a part of the Anglican Communion. In other words, CANA is just as much a part of the Anglican Communion as the missionary diocese of the Navajoland. The primates, along with the ABC, also recognized the legitimacy of both CANA and the AMiA at Tanzania.

[This observation was made in response to a letter sent by Bishop Lee to the Diocese of Virginia.]
