Their time together in Coventry focused specifically on approaches to reconciliation and becoming a reconciling community.<\/p>\n<p>[.\u2026]<\/p>\n<p>At the close of this fifth Consultation, the bishops committed themselves to support the Archbishop of Canterbury\u2019s priority of reconciliation in the Anglican Communion. In response to Archbishop Justin\u2019s appeal, the bishops will \u201cpray for wisdom to know what to do, and for the patience to know when to do it, and the courage to act.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The Canadian reconciliation contingent is listed below; the choice seems a little odd since it includes bishops who have sued fellow Christians and yet haven\u2019t expended\u00a0 much energy to reconcile with them. No-one from ACNA was invited, probably because the ACoC and TEC are unwilling to reconcile with ACNA, all of which leads me to suspect that the exercise has more to do with propaganda than reconciliation:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The Most Rev.
