Lambeth exceeded expectations, Dr Williams reports


The report from two British publications on Rowan's enthusiasm for the way Lambeth went.

Church Times

"In a letter to the bishops of the Anglican Communion, Dr Williams said that the Conference allowed every bishop’s voice to be heard, and helped to rebuild trust. “I believe the Conference succeeded in doing this to a very remarkable degree — more than most people expected. At the end of our time together, many people, especially some of the newer bishops, said that they had been surprised by the amount of convergence they had seen. “And there can be no doubt that practically all who were present sincerely wanted the Communion to stay together.”"
