STANDING TOGETHER

Canon Kevin Donlon, Bishop Roald Nikolai and Canon Geoffrey Neal

At a conference at the end of January 2014 in Oslo between the Nordic Catholic Church and traditional Lutherans from Norway and Sweden were distinguished guests from England’s Anglican Association, Canon Geoffrey Neal, and The Anglican Mission in America (AMiA), Canon Kevin Donlon. The meeting also gave occasion to further the realignment between Anglo-Catholics, Nordic Catholic Church and Mission Province.

The high point for our visitors came when they were able to attend the Feast of the Presentation in the Church of St. Michael and All Saints in Fredrikstad (see photo: Kevin Donlon, left, and Geoffrey Neal, right). Addressing the parishioners at the church coffee they conveyed greetings from their respective organisations and underlined the importance for Christians to come together in these difficult times.
