The Anglican Communion's Safe Church Commission (ACSCC) has presented a report to the Anglican Consultative Council (ACC-19) and called for a renewal of its commitment to safeguarding and building a culture of safe church across the Communion.
ACC Members heard from the outgoing Chair, Mr Garth Blake (Anglican Church of Australia), together with Canon Andrew Khoo (Church of the Province of South East Asia) and Dr Kim Barker (Anglican Church of Southern Africa). The trio reflected on the Commission's work since it was established by ACC-16 in 2016 and looked ahead to its future ministry.
At the conclusion of the session, Garth Blake received a standing ovation from the floor of ACC-19 for his outstanding work and service to the ACSCC.
