At Church gatherings such as ACC-14 the delegates experience different
styles of worship, theology and conversations that fosters growth and
development in each person. There are also moments when decisions need
to be made-the election of a new chairperson, resolutions on very
important matters and constitutional questions to name a few. In those
moments there is often needed a clear legal mind to help with the
process and settle matters when disputes arise. The Anglican
Consultative Council has been blessed with the presence of Canon John
Rees as its legal Advisor since 1995.

John is a practicing solicitor and Provincial Registrar to the
Archbishop of Canterbury. He has advised successive Archbishops for over
20 years. He was also the Convener of the Anglican Communion Legal
Advisers Network since its inception in 2001. He served as the Legal
Consultant to the Lambeth Commission in 2003-04.

John is an Honourary Canon of Canterbury Cathedral and in the following
podcast responded to a variety of constitutional and legal questions
that affect the Anglican Communion.
