Canterbury Cathedral rejoices about new Archbishop

[Canterbury Cathedral] The Dean of Canterbury, the Very Revd Robert Willis,
said today "I am delighted that the Most Revd Dr Rowan Williams has been
chosen by Her Majesty the Queen to succeed Dr George Carey as Archbishop of
Canterbury. As Archbishop of Wales and a Primate of the Anglican Communion,
he is already a well-known visitor to Canterbury - he was here for a week in
mid April. He will have a wide international ministry and will come with all
our prayers and best wishes to join the Cathedral's family in Canterbury,
living in the Cathedral Precincts with his wife, Jane, and children Rhiannon
(14) and Pip (6) for part of each year.

"We all look forward to his Enthronement here in the Cathedral early next
year in the Chair of St Augustine".
