The long-standing relationship between South Africa and the Anglican Communion was reinforced Friday to address new challenges in the African country.

"That the Archbishop is in the country and that we're able to meet helps us to reinforce the message that the common work is not yet done," said South Africa's President Thabo Mbeki at a press briefing.

Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams, head of the Communion, visited the president in the middle of a week-long international conference - Towards Effective Anglican Mission (TEAM) - which commenced in Boksburg, South Africa on Wednesday. The conference convened more than 400 people from the Anglican Communion to review the global body's response to the Millennium Development Goals and how the church can do more. the rest
