Anglicans and Lutherans discuss joys and challenges of Gospel witness
This week the Secretary General of the Anglican Communion, Archbishop Josiah Idowu Fearon, and the Deputy Secretary General, Rev. Dr Will Adam, visited the LWF Communion Office and met with LWF General Secretary Rev. Anne Burghardt and LWF Assistant General Secretary for Ecumenical Relations Prof. Dr Dirk Lange at the LWF Communion Office.
"The time spent together was encouraging and insightful, sharing news from each communion, discussing the joys and challenges of Gospel witness today, and looking ahead to the implementation of the many doctrinal consensus statements through the Anglican-Lutheran International Commission on Unity and Mission," said Prof. Lange.
