>Our January conference, "The Future of the Anglican Communion," will be

>Silas Episcopal Church in Glasgow, Scotland; and colleagues from the
>ACI who have been involved in producing the "Steps of Discipline" for
>Lambeth, including The Revd Dr Ephraim Radner, The Very Revd Dr

>Andrews, Scotland. We will also have important papers from Drs Radner
>and Turner and The Revd Dr Tom Smail (London), a most popular SEAD
>speaker from past conferences.

>After the keynote address of Archbishop Gomez, we intend to have a panel
>and open discussion, following brief papers, on Friday afternoon. This will
>provide time for questions, clarifications, information, and encouragement.

"If there were any word of God beside the Scripture, we could never be 
certain of God's Word; and if we be uncertain of God's Word, the devil might 
bring in among us a new word, a new doctrine, a new faith, a new church, a 
new god, yea himself to be a god. If the Church and the
Christian faith did not stay itself upon the Word of God certain, as upon a 
sure and strong foundation, no man could know whether he had a right faith, 
and whether he were in the true Church of Christ, or in the synagogue of 
Satan."-- Archbishop Thomas Cranmer, Reformer and Martyr
