Anglicans Gather for Lambeth Conference

Posted in Christianity, Denominations | 7 views

Six-hundred-and-fifty bishops of the worldwide Anglican Communion assembled in Canterbury, England this July for the Lambeth Conference, a three-week-long meeting that’s held just once every decade. But more than 200 other bishops are boycotting the event. The 77-million-member Communion has been threatened with schism because of longstanding divisions over homosexuality and the interpretation of Scripture. Click here to watch the video.
