Church unity in Canada

Archbishop Fred Hiltz, Primate of the Anglican Church has made a statement about the departure of several parishes from Anglican Church of Canada (hot on the heels of talks breaking down in Ontario)--and made it available through a videocast on the web. In it, he states that the Canadian Church is still "vibrant and united in its witness to the Gospel message," according to a release that accompanied the video. And while some people decide to leave, many many more remain committed to the Church live in the Anglican tradition of worshiping and living "together gracefully with difference."

The video is also available with the accompanying release here.
