[Magdalen] TEC suspended from Anglican Communion

[Catharine Phillips]

Hi Pubbies,
According to ENS, the ACC is the only policy making group for the Anglican
Communion. They meet in April. The ACNA person was invited to the meeting,
and had voice but no vote. The Primates meeting is a consultative group.

Blessings, Catharine
