To quote Nicky Gumbel, in Questions of Life p137
When we come to Christ and become sons and daughters of God we become party of a huge family… Jesus prayed for unity among his followers (John 17).
Paul pleaded with the Ephesian Christians to ‘ make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bid of peace’ (Ephesians 4:3). The Spirit wants us to be united and helps us grow in unity…..
The same Holy Spirit lives in every Christian wherever they are and whatever their denomination, background, colour or race. … (Ephesians 4: 4-6).
The same Spirit indwells Christians in Russia, China, Africa, America, the UK or wherever. Roman Catholic, Orthodox,Lutheran, Methodist, Baptist, Pentecostal, Anglican or new church…
In one sense, important as it may be to us, what matters more than our denomination is whether or not we have the Spirit of God.. The same Spirit indwells Christians in every denomination….

A biblically unqualified archibishop getting ordained? No Gospel there in the service (she doesn't take the Bible seriously so no surprise there).
I thank God I go to a Reformed Baptist church that takes God's Word seriously. I am Anglican but this ordination is the final nail in the coffin for me considering being in communion with Canterbury.

I watched a video of the service and found it to be interesting and inspirational. One of my favorite memories of England was our visit to Canterbury Cathedral.

That's great! I plan to watch videos of the event.

Meanwhile in the faith I was raised, women can't be clergy.

@JimboSaturn Sarah has a hard job to fulfil, she needs our prayers. I’ve met her, she is very accessible.
Locally, there are four Anglican church’s which I’m in fellowship with. One has male priests, one has female, evangelical, one mixed and one shared ministry of husband and wife, charismatic.
