Easter Messages from Anglican Communion Primates
As usual, the Anglican Communion News Service is gathering Easter Messages
from the Primates of the Anglican Communion, and will be publishing them.
We are unable to provide a full translation service for these, and usually
publish them in English and their original language. You can find this
year’s collection of Easter Messages here
<http://acocomms.org/lists/lt.
.
During the global Covid-19 lockdown we are producing weekly video-based
worship services, featuring voices from around the Communion. You can find
a listing of all our services here and the latest version will always be
available at www.anglicancommunion.org/wors
www.anglicancommunion.org/wors
currently our Palm Sunday service – that link will take you to our Easter
Service from Saturday evening UK-Time. Please do what you can to share that
address amongst your family, friends, and congregations.
And please take part in our Easter Day social media campaign – you can
find details of that in our news article here.
My colleagues and I at the Anglican Communion Offices in London and New
York are currently working from our homes, in response to the Covid-19
pandemic.
We wish you all a very happy, peaceful, and healthy Easter as we look ahead
to the feast of the resurrection.
