Joint ACC, Primates Steering Committee Meets

The Living Church has a list of the Primates on the steering committee meeting this week along with representatives of the Anglican Consultative Council. See the Times piece two posts below.

The Joint Steering Committee (JSC) of primates and representatives of the Anglican Consultative Council (ACC) are holding an important planning meeting in London this week in advance of forthcoming meetings of the primates in February in Alexandria, Egypt, and of the ACC in Jamaica in May.

Approval for a possible second province in North America expected to be on the agenda for the primates’ meeting as well as the ACC gathering.

Elected from within their respective bodies, JSC members meet on a regular basis between meetings of the two larger groups. Two of the six primates on the JSC are absent: the Most Rev. Henry Orombi, Archbishop of Uganda, and the Most Rev. Mouneer Anis, President Bishop of The Episcopal Church in Jerusalem and the Middle East. The primates reported present by Anglican Communion News Service are: the Most. Rev. Phillip Aspinall, Archbishop of Australia; the Most Rev. Barry Morgan, Archbishop of Wales; the Most Rev. Katharine Jefferts Schori, Presiding Bishop of The Episcopal Church; and the Most Rev. Rowan Williams, Archbishop of Canterbury.
