From Christian Post-
Though it has been struggling with an internal crisis, the worldwide Anglican Communion is still attracting positive attention.
Casting sights on possible ecumenical partnerships with the Communion are the registered Protestant Church in China and Coptic Orthodox Church.
This is mainly due to the rise of the Anglican Global South.
Representatives of both church bodies were invited to the fourth Anglican Global South summit held this week in Singapore.
The church leaders have expressed an interest in deepening their relationship with the Anglican Communion.
“I hope that the Chinese Church and the Anglican Global South can expand their cooperation,” said Elder Fu Xianwei.
The Chairman of the Three Self Patriotic Movement (TSPM) was making his parting speech before leaving earlier today.
Opportunities for dialogue at the summit have benefited him, Elder Fu expressed.
“The Bible studies, talks and discussions have been helpful for my spiritual growth and for church management,” he said.
Elder Fu told Anglican leaders that he had increased confidence in building his Church. He had attended all the public talks and most of the discussion groups.
Both the Anglican Communion and the Chinese Church face similar challenges of serving God in a multi-religious, globalised and secularised context.
Because of this, dialogue has increased understanding and counsel between the two church bodies.
