Rev. Canon Kawuki Mukasa is the ACoC’s new “Africa relations co-ordinator” and he is about to perform a similar function for TEC. It would appear that he has been given the rather ambitious task of rebuilding the reputation of the Anglican Church of Canada in Africa. The diminishing of the ACoC’s standing in Africa has, according to Mukasa, nothing at all to do with the blessing of same sex marriages, the ordination of openly active homosexual clergy, the numerous lawsuits launched to acquire buildings that others paid for or the diminishing of the centrality of Christ.
No! It is all GAFCON’s fault for launching a “campaign of misinformation”. Mukasa isn’t entirely clear what the heinous calumnies GAFCON has ingeniously concocted are that could possibly appear worse than the things the ACoC has actually done.
From here (page 4, my emphasis):
In a letter read out by Bishop Barry Clarke at the January meeting of the Montreal Diocesan Council, Rev. Canon Kawuki Mukasa, global relations officer for Africa, says the Anglican Church of Canada would like to build on the good will that Montreal has helped to sustain in relations with Africa. He invites the diocese to work collaboratively with other Canadian dioceses that have companion links with African dioceses “to explore ways of reclaiming the reputation that Canada used to enjoy in African Provinces” before a “campaign of misinformation” by an international group called the Global Fellowship of Confessing Anglicans.
“global relations officer”?!
Whatever happened to Missionaries?
We need them here in Canada, in the ACoC, even or especially;
ideally from GAFCON’s Biblical Africa! S.O.S.!
