List Of Primates In The Anglican Communion

This is a list of the 38 current Primates in the worldwide Anglican Communion.The use in the case of England and Ireland is pre- Reformation; in other instances (e;g; Canada) formal synodical decisions have enforced the use, but in most cases (e.g. Wales) use of the term is purely informal. The Scottish term Primas is analogous, but does not carry the political weight historically accorded to national primates, but has juridical significance.

Famous quotes containing the words list of, list, anglican and/or communion:

    Do your children view themselves as successes or failures? Are they being encouraged to be inquisitive or passive? Are they afraid to challenge authority and to question assumptions? Do they feel comfortable adapting to change? Are they easily discouraged if they cannot arrive at a solution to a problem? The answers to those questions will give you a better appraisal of their education than any list of courses, grades, or test scores.
    Lawrence Kutner (20th century)

    Thirty—the promise of a decade of loneliness, a thinning list of single men to know, a thinning brief-case of enthusiasm, thinning hair.
    F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)

    The Anglican Church is marked by the grace and good sense of its forms, by the manly grace of its clergy. The gospel it preaches is, “By taste are ye saved.” ... It is not in ordinary a persecuting church; it is not inquisitorial, not even inquisitive, is perfectly well bred and can shut its eyes on all proper occasions. If you let it alone, it will let you alone. But its instinct is hostile to all change in politics, literature, or social arts.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    There is a communion of more than our bodies when bread is broken and wine drunk.
    M.F.K. Fisher (1908–1992)
