	Lambeth Conferences - LoveToKnow 1911
		LAMBETH CONFERENCES, the name given to the periodical assemblies of bishops of the Anglican Communion (Pan-Anglican synods), which since 1867 have met at Lambeth Palace, the London residence of the archbishop of Canterbury.
		The fifth Lambeth conference, following as it did close on the great Pan-Anglican congress, is remarkable mainly as a proof of the growth of the influence and many-sided activity of the Anglican Church, and as a conspicuous manifestation of her characteristic principles.
		A notable feature of the conference was the presence of the Swedish bishop of Kalmar, who presented a letter from the archbishop of Upsala, as a tentative advance towards closer relations between the Anglican Church and the Evangelical Church of Sweden.

	Only Connect: Lambeth Conference in no sense a law making body.
		The Conference this year has two key points of focus: strengthening the sense of a shared Anglican identity among the bishops from around the world, and helping to equip bishops for the role they increasingly have as leaders in mission, involved in a whole variety of ways in helping the Church grow.
		But the desire to see the Lambeth Conference as a legislature of any kind (with, presumably, the Archbishop of Canterbury as constitutional monarch, the ACC as executive, and the Primates as judiciary) is to read the trend of history in reverse.

		The conference of 1908 with Archbishop Davidson in the chair was attended by 242 bishops and concerned itself with the issues of the ministry of healing, the possible revision of the prayer book and the supply and training of the clergy.
		Among the important and controversial issues on the agenda of the 1978 conference was the subject of the ordination of women to the priesthood, training of bishops, human rights, and the evolving inter-Anglican bodies.

		The Conference affirms (a) the duty of parenthood as the glory of married life; (b) the benefit of a family as a joy in itself, as a vital contribution to the nation’s welfare, and as a means of characterbuilding for both parents and children; (c) the privilege of discipline and sacrifice to this end.
		The Conference desires to draw attention again to the wide and important range of work which may be entrusted to deaconesses by the constituted authorities of any province of the Anglican Communion; and recommends that in all parts of the Anglican Communion the work of deaconesses should be encouraged and their status and function defined.
		The Conference records its profound conviction that the idea of the human family is rooted in the Godhead and that consequently all problems of sex relations, the procreation of children, and the organisation of family life must be related, consciously and directly, to the creative, redemptive, and sanctifying power of God.

		Unlike an early church council, though, the Lambeth Conference is not a legislative body; its resolutions are not binding within the Anglican Communion.
		The Conference was named after the Archbishop of Canterbury's London residence, Lambeth Palace, on the south side of the Thames at Lambeth Bridge where bishops met until their sheer number dictated a change.
		The 1978 Lambeth Conference called for diocesan studies on 'the moral issues inherent in clinical abortion' and asked for 'deep and dispassionate study of homosexuality'.

	The Lambeth Conference: Not Easy to Comprehend
		Resolutions from the Lambeth Conference are purely advisory and have no official standing or canonical authority in any of the provinces.
		Of course, given that Lambeth has no legislative power, this is merely a recommendation, not a command, and bishops so minded will no doubt continue ordaining non-celibate gays and lesbians to the priesthood and permitting the blessing of committed same-gender relationships, despite the resolution "advising" them not to.
		Many bishops felt that it is not in the plenaries that the real work of the Lambeth Conference is done, in the sense of creating and strengthening understanding between bishops from all parts of the world and widely differing cultures.

		The Lambeth Conference could add an important voice to the growing chorus calling for forgiveness of the debt in a "Jubilee Year 2000," modeled on the biblical tradition of freeing slaves and returning land to its owners every 50 years.
		At the 1988 conference, even in the midst of diverging and conflicting opinions, the Bible studies offered a place where participants "could feel at home and have their say," observed Bishop Simon Barrington-Ward, retired bishop of Coventry who is coordinating the studies.

		It was the Bishop of Vermont who first suggested a conference of Anglican bishops; but it was an appeal from the Canadian bishops, who saw the political unity between their country and England beginning to dissolve, that brought about the first gathering.
		It was at that second conference, in 1878, that the Archbishop of York (William IX Thomson) preached a sermon that is still relevant in 2008.

		The conference also urged that the papal question be resolved by careful study under the guardiance of the Holy Spirit.
		The 1888 Conference for example indicated that it tolerated those who believed that the bond was intrinsically indissoluble, as well as those who believed that it was only ideally indissoluble.
		Lambeth Conferences are of course not definitive bodies, but this very fact points up the need for a divinely authorized definitive voice within Anglicanism, which it at present lacks.

	Anglican Curmudgeon: Lambeth Between Wars: the Rest of the Story

		There were 241 bishops attending the 1908 Conference; it was by far the largest Conference to date, and it adopted in all some 78 resolutions on a wide range of topics.
		The Sunday insert sums up the entire work of the 1930 Lambeth Conference, comprising 75 resolutions in all, in just two words: "birth control," and the Episcopal Life message is an attack on the doctrine (expressed first in the 1662 Book of Common Prayer) that marriage is instituted primarily for procreation.

	The Lambeth Commission on Communion - The Windsor Report
		During its work the Lambeth Commission has recognised the existence within the Anglican Communion of a large constituency of faithful members who are bemused and bewildered by the intensity of the opposing views on issues of sexuality.
		The Lambeth Commission was established in October 2003 by the Archbishop of Canterbury at the request of the Anglican Primates.
		The Lambeth Commission has been conscious of the trust placed in it by the Anglican Communion and, despite the difficulties it has faced, offers this Report in the prayerful hope that it will encourage the enhanced levels of understanding which are essential for the future of the Anglican Communion.

	USCCB - SEIA - How Can We Recognize 'Substantial Agreement'?
		This statement, which is similar to statements found in Lambeth proceedings since 1888, says that 'resolutions passed by a Lambeth conference do not have legislative authority in any province until they have been approved by the provincial synod of the province'.
		He asked for careful study and considered judgment, and requested that the replies of the conferences address the question of 'whether it (The Final Report) is consonant in substance with the faith of the Catholic Church concerning matters discussed'.
		Thus, while the overall evaluation of the Lambeth Conference was positive, it also reported 'continuing anxieties' regarding eucharistic sacrifice and presence as well as on 'Ministry and Ordination', requests 'for a clarification of "priesthood"'.
