Dr Williams regrets

The Archbishop of Canterbury has expressed regret at the decision of the Most Rev Dr Mouneer Anis, Bishop of the
Diocese of Egypt with North Africa and the Horn of Africa, and President Bishop of the Province of Jerusalem and the Middle East, to resign from Standing Committee of the Anglican Communion.

"Bishop Mouneer has made an important contribution to the work of the Standing Committee, for which I am deeply grateful," Dr Williams said. "I regret his decision to stand down but will continue to welcome his active engagement with the life of the Communion and the challenges we face together."

Bishop Mouneer cited the ongoing revisions of The Episcopal Church and Standing Committee''s failure to discipline TEC based on recommendations of the Windsor Report and the Primates Meetings.
