In the early 1930s Bishop Alexander travelled to Uganda at the invitation of Reuben Sseseya Mukasa (later known as Fr Reuben Spartas, and in 1973 he was consecrated as Bishop Christopherous of Nilopolis) and Obadiah Bassajjikitalo, two former Anglicans whose reading had led them to seek to join the Orthodox Church.
Alexander replied, and also wrote to the Orthodox bishop of Johannesburg, asking for a letter of introduction to the Orthodox priest at Moshi, Tanganyika, and expressing an interest in a merger with the Greek Orthodox Church in South Africa (Githieya 1992:158).

 Alexander Penrose Forbes, by William Perry   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
But in 1847 the young Bishop of Brechin was as sure of the Catholicity of the Scottish Church as he was of his own existence, and the first stage of his episcopate, from 1847 till 1850, was perhaps the happiest period of his life.
Bishop Forbes' chapel was the upper floor of a bank in Castle Street, a large room filled with green-baize pews, as mean a place of worship as could be imagined.
So successful was the Bishop's appeal that by the autumn a considerable sum was in hand, and the Bishop felt justified in cautiously sounding some of his people as to the possibility of introducing the Scottish Office on alternate Sundays when the new church was built.
