The Venerable Sheila Watson, the Archdeacon of Canterbury, one of the most
senior female clerics in the Church of England, will perform the first of
two inductions in a service to formally recognise the Most Rev Justin Welby
as the 105th archbishop at the city’s cathedral on Thursday.
In a show of unity not seen since a rift over homosexuality opened up eight
years ago, all of the primates of the 77-million strong Anglican Communion
are expected to attend and worship under the same roof.
The Archbishop of Canterbury inducted by a woman and all 77 Primates in the same building?
God bless them every one.
