GOOD NEIGHBOURS IN TIMES OF WAR

One of the Five Marks of Mission in the Anglican Communion is ‘To transform unjust structures of society, to challenge violence of every kind and pursue peace and reconciliation.’ The War in Ukraine is not confined to the borders of Ukraine, or even contained with the borders of Ukraine, Russia and their neighbours. It has taught us how we are all neighbours in Europe, in this continent, in this world. And it has taught us how it is vital that as neighbours we listen to the voices of pain, sorrow, fear, uncertainty and struggle on the ground as we keep relationships healthy through good, honest conversations.
