On the Dublin Meeting: GSA Editorial

This editorial from the Global South Anglican website, based in Singapore, expresses some of the reasons a significant proportion of the Primates won’t be going to Dublin next week.

“What is most disturbing and difficult is that given the intractable miry situation the Communion is already in and being further driven into, there was hardly any timely and intentional prior consultation and collegial engagement of all concerned (or at least as many as reasonably possible) in preparing for the Meeting to ensure certain degree of significant and principally legitimate outcome to hold and move the Communion together.

In light of the critical importance of the Meeting, the preparations are gravely inadequate.

… it is with great sadness that some Primates have arrived at the decision that it is neither right nor proper for them to be present at the Dublin Meeting.”
