Couldn't find it anywhere. <br />We do have a risen Lord in this Church, and as I recall his instructions about getting on with mission they were, "You have a worldwide mission but don't try to get on with it until the Spirit is poured out on you. In the meantime wait and pray..." which they did and then the miracle happened. Without the promised spiritual renewal and empowerment they could achieve nothing. Well that's the missional logic of Pentecost as I understand it. I just can't find it in any form in this Pentecost letter. <br /><br />Rowan's logic ...<br />1. We need a new Pentecost to bring us together.<br />2. It hasn't arrived yet, so it seems we are not going to get what we need.<br />3.

The latter two are governed by constitutional provisions which cannot be overturned by any one person’s decision alone, and there will have to be further consultation as to how they are affected. I shall be inviting the views of all members of the Primates’ Meeting on the handling of these matters with a view to the agenda of the next scheduled meeting in January 2011."<br />Good. <br />James in SCAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
