The Faces of GAFCON – part 2

GAFCONlogo

The photographers recording the GAFCON II conference this past week deserve a huge SHOUT OUT and a sustained wave of applause for capturing so many just absolutely STUNNING images.

These pictures bring to life just what it means to be One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church – a people bought by Christ to be His own from every tribe, tongue, people and nation.

Here are 30 or so of my favorite pictures from the week.

I publish these as an offering of praise to our great God who is by the Holy Spirit transforming us from glory into glory into the image of His Son.  How GOOD and PLEASANT it is when brothers dwell together in unity!

  1. I read the GAFCON communique, and will blog on it at 6am UTC, but- there they are, splitting the Anglican communion, and for what? They include people who ordain women, and people who refuse to, Catholics and Evangelicals and Charismatics, and they want to split the Anglican Communion and set up an alternative province in the USA because they want to carry on saying Hindus and Homosexuals go to Hell.

    Splitting the Communion. That is ridiculous and horrible- isn’t it?
