Bishops at the Lambeth Conference in 1930 defined
the Anglican Communion as “as a fellowship of churches, provinces and
dioceses in communion with the See of Canterbury.” (Photo courtesy of Anglican Communication News Service).
There have been appeals to
Anglicans around the world to accept a need for frank and open
discussion on the divisive issue of same-sex marriage at the 2020
ten-yearly 'Lambeth Conference.'This Anglican Communion gathering was first held in 1867.
The Anglican Communion is a consultative and collaborative international association of autonomous national and regional churches with 80 million members rather than a governing body.
In 1998, the 13th Lambeth Conference of Anglican bishops passed a resolution stating that "homosexual acts" are "incompatible with Scripture".
