Tributes paid to Christian  journalist Andrew Carey

Tributes have been paid to journalist Andrew Carey, who died from pancreatic cancer earlier this year. He was previously editor of the Church of England Newspaper.

David Virtue, of website Virtue Online, said: “I first met Andrew at the 1998 Lambeth Conference where the ‘infamous’ Lambeth resolution 1:10 (on sexuality) emerged and forever changed the course and direction of the Anglican Communion.

“Andrew was truly in his element and as a fellow evangelical we bonded as there were few evangelical reporters at that time. Our paths crossed over the years. He went on to become the editor of the Church of England Newspaper. A voice for orthodoxy has been stilled. We feebly struggle, he in glory shines.”
