This week, over 1300 people from 53 nations have gathered together for GAFCON IVin Kigali, Rwanda.
This conference draws together Anglicans from around the world who are seeking to guard the unchanging, transforming gospel of Jesus Christ and to proclaim Him to the world.
The conference is taking place at a unique time in the history of the Anglican Church.
In February the Church of England decided to create and implement prayers of blessing for same-sex marriages.
In response, the Primates of The Global South Fellowship of Anglican Churches (who represent the majority of the world’s worshipping Anglicans) declared that they are in impaired communion with the Church of England and said that they do not recognise the present Archbishop of Canterbury as the “first among equals” leader of the global Anglican Communion.
The Prime Minister of the Republic of Rwanda, Rt Hon Edouard Ngirente represented President Paul Kagame at today’s official opening.
