[Anglican Cafe] 19 Dec 2007--As the day has gone on various people have begun to weigh in with their reactions to the Archbishop of Canterbury's Advent letter, in which he lays out his thinking about the next steps for the Communion.

The Episcopal News Service coverage of the letter includes a reaction from the Presiding Bishop of the Episcopal Church:

"Presiding Bishop Katharine Jefferts Schori welcomed Williams' Advent Letter. 'In this season, as we focus on hope and preparation, I am glad to hear of the Archbishop's interest in facilitating further conversations,' she said. 'While I have repeatedly offered to engage in dialogue with those who are most unhappy, the offer has not yet been seriously engaged. Perhaps a personal call from the Archbishop will bring to the table those who have thus far been unwilling to talk. Advent is both a time to ready our eyes to see God in unlikely guises, and to put our hope in God's ultimate graciousness.'"
