Robin Eames lead Anglicans on North Korea visit

The former Church of Ireland Primate, Lord Robin Eames, is leading an Anglican Communion delegation in North Korea, on behalf of the Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr Rowan Williams.

Lord Eames left Northern Ireland this week to meet up with a group of other Anglicans, including the primates of South Korea, the United States and Japan.

Prior to his departure, Lord Eames told the Belfast Telegraph: “The visit to North Korea is linked to humanitarian aid provided by the Anglican Communion and the project concludes with an international peace conference in South Korea at the weekend.

“During this meeting I will be delivering a keynote speech from the Archbishop of Canterbury.”

    I assume that one of those in Archbishop Eames’ party will be Presiding Bishop Katherine Jefferts Schori. She recently completed a visit to China to meet with church officials there, the same ones visited by several GS primates a few weeks ago, and is going on to North and South Korea.

    Maybe KJS can give the Beloved Leader some tips on good governance, eh?

    #2, your nasty remark insulting the PB is unworthy of you.
