Or at least that’s true among the older ones, like the advocates for a nationwide ‘third province’ where a handful of bishops can turn up on occasion from some remote Oswestrian corner of the country and pronounce the magic words at ordination. But aligning with the Global South Fellowship of Anglicans under its current chair Archbishop Justin Badi Arama would be subscribing to a much more demanding version of a bishop specifically and Anglicanism generally. Have we got the stomach for it?
