BBC Radio 4 - Sunday Worship, God's Church for God's World

A service from Canterbury Cathedral for the 2022 Lambeth Conference.

A service from Canterbury Cathedral for the 2022 Lambeth Conference, led by the Archbishop of Canterbury.

Bishops gather in Canterbury from all over the Anglican Communion for the Lambeth Conference, to talk, pray and share together. They listen to God, listen to one another, rejoice in what God is doing and lament the brokenness of the world. This year they are considering what it means to be God’s Church for God’s World. Over two weeks they explore a number of topics: - what it means to inhabit the world with an open heart for hospitality in ways that promote unity and love - through evangelism and reconciliation, what it means to be Anglicans, how to build a safer church, questions around the environment and sustainable development, Christian unity, and discipleship.

At the worshipping heart of the conference is a service in Canterbury Cathedral, led by the Archbishop of Canterbury, the Most Rev Justin Welby. The preacher is the Rt Rev Dr Vicentia Kgabe, Bishop of Lesotho. The Choir of Canterbury Cathedral, directed by David Newsholme, are joined by the Zinafe Choir and the Lambeth Conference Music Group, led by the Rev Pete Gunstone.

Producer: Andrew Earis
