From 10–12 August, Primates and Provincial Secretaries from across the Americas met in the diocese of São Paulo, in the Anglican Episcopal Church of Brazil (IEAB), for a time of prayer, conversation and shared discernment across the Provinces. Following on from the meeting, several of the Primates and Provincial Secretaries will participate in a broader regional gathering organised by the Anglican Alliance to explore a listening process for reimagining power called A Place At the Table.
