Recognition for North American Anglicans

http://www.sydneyanglicans.net/news/communion/recognition_for_north_american_anglicans/

[sydneyanglicans.net] 30 Apr 2009--The April 16 communiqué issued by the GAFCON/FCA Primates’ Council declared the Anglican Church in North America as genuinely Anglican and recommends that Anglican Provinces affirm full communion with the ACNA.

What does this mean? Four months earlier, the Primates welcomed ‘the news of the North American Anglican Province in formation’. They fully supported ‘this development with our prayer and blessing, since it demonstrates the determination of these faithful Christians to remain authentic Anglicans’.

How is a new province ‘recognised’ in the Anglican Communion? And, what is the Anglican Communion?
