During a recent national gathering to discuss the future of theological educa- tion for priestly ministry in the Anglican Church of Canada, Cliff publicly stated that he is not comfortable sending people who have not had a seminary education to participate in the church’s standard discernment process. In an interview with the Anglican Journal following the conference, Cliff expanded on his comments, explaining that in his opinion, the process does not When I started, we didn’t have locally raised-up do enough to take into account cultural differences within the church, especially “clergy.
