Summary:The ‘Appeal to All Christian People' that was issued by the Lambeth Conference a hundred years ago reflected a deep sense of the ecumenical vocation of Anglicanism.

While substantial challenges have become apparent over the past century, their combination remains a significant offering that Anglicanism can make to the global Church today.
