Dear Martyn,

Grace and peace to you from God our Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

With a profound desire to promote our unity in Jesus Christ which issues from his reconciling work on the Cross and an abiding trust in the power of God’s Word written, and with a genuine commitment to support the emerging ecclesiastical structure of faithful Anglicans in North America, promoting the development of a new system of missionary leadership and local Gospel-centered Anglican churches, I commend the following congregations with their clergy to your episcopal oversight as Missionary Bishop of CANA (Convocation of Anglicans in North America).
