The Global Anglican Future Conference (GAFCon) in Jerusalem, 22 - 29 June 2008 was an important milestone in the history of the Anglican Communion.
| • |
It included the Jerusalem Declaration, a theological statement that forms the basis of unity among orthodox Anglicans at the Global Anglican Future conference. |
| • |
It called for the formation of a new Orthodox Anglican Province in North America to encompass Anglican churches that have realigned out of the Anglican Church of Canada and the Episcopal Church (USA) due to theological and moral disagreements. |
| • |
And it established a new structure – a Primates Council of the GAFCon movement – to begin to bring order to the existing chaos in the Communion and to authenticate confessing Anglican jurisdictions, clergy and congregations and to advance the mission of the Church. |
