Archbishop Jensen’s statement on Lambeth

4/8/08

Statement from the Archbishop of Sydney, Dr Peter Jensen

We have been praying for the Lambeth conference and now that it has ended we look forward to talking with those who were there. It seems it has fulfilled the desires of the Archbishop of Canterbury and we also look forward to hearing from him.
Our absence focused minds on the problems within the communion and spoke louder than our presence would have. However, the issues which have caused such division are still before us and require decisive action so that the mission of the church will not be further impaired.
