The Archbishop of Canterbury will travel to Rome to meet Pope Leo on April 25th. The visit was announced as Pope and Archbishop exchanged letters at Sarah Mullally’s installation in Canterbury Cathedral back in March, according to Premier Christian News.
In his message, Pope Leo assured Archbishop Sarah of his prayers, and, referring Pope Francis’ message to Anglican primates in 2024 that “it would be a scandal if, due to our divisions, we did not fulfil our common vocation to make Christ known”, he committed himself to “make these words my own, for it is through the witness of a reconciled, fraternal and united Christian community that the proclamation of the Gospel will resound most clearly.”
In her message, Archbishop Sarah wrote: “As Archbishop …, I too am called to serve as an instrument of communion within the Anglican Communion, and to seek the full and visible unity to which our Lord has called us all (John 17:21).”
