Archbishop of Canterbury Sarah Mullally, the new leader of the world’s Anglicans, has hailed Pope Leo’s “courageous call” for peace following a war of words with US President Donald Trump, AFP reports.
“I stand with my brother in Christ, His Holiness Pope XIV, in his courageous call for a kingdom of peace. As innocent people are killed and displaced, families torn apart, and futures destroyed, the human cost of war is incalculable,” Mullally says in a statement.
The archbishop has urged Anglicans to “join with His Holiness (the pope) in raising our voices for peace and justice”.
“In a time marked by hatred, division, and violence, may we be steadfast in that calling,” she adds.
