[Episcopal News Service] Presiding Bishop Michael Curry speaks from Rome during a week when Anglicans and Roman Catholics are participating in a series of events to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the historic meeting in 1966 between Pope Paul VI and Archbishop of Canterbury Michael Ramsey.

The celebrations also recognize the 50^th anniversary of the Anglican Centre in Rome, established following that 1966 meeting as an official presence with an ambassadorial function on behalf of the Anglican Communion in the Eternal City. The center houses an extensive library, serves as an ecumenical meeting place and educational center, and includes the offices of the archbishop of Canterbury’s diplomatic representative to the Vatican, Archbishop David Moxon.
