Dr. Mouneer Anis, Bishop of Egypt with North Africa, has written to explain why he is going to Lambeth –
“I count it a great honour to have been invited to GAFCON.
I appreciate the fact that GAFCON provides an important meeting place for leaders from the South and from the North. I very much understand the frustrations as well as the hopes that led to the organisation of this conference. … I am sorry that I will not be able to be with you at your Conference but I assure you that you will be in my prayers. …
God has spoken to me through the Book of Jonah. So I decided not to withdraw but to go [to Lambeth] and speak the truth, and leave the rest to God. …”
