The second all-African Bishops Conference took place in Entebbe, Uganda from August 23-27. Over 310 Anglican Bishops attended, including 35 from Uganda. When the 150 from Nigeria stood in the opening meeting there were gasps of astonishment.

One theme throughout the conference was that the African Anglican Church was now going to move on to the front foot and actively promote orthodox Christian faith “from everywhere to anywhere”.

They perceive that the Anglican Church in the West has forgotten or abandoned many of the foundations of the Christian gospel that their own people brought to Africa. Out of gratitude the African Anglicans will now take responsibility for bringing that biblical gospel back to the missionary homelands. the rest at Anglican Mainstream
