Convocation of Canterbury

The Convocation of Canterbury is a formal gathering of bishops, clergy, and scholars associated with the Church of England, centered at Canterbury Cathedral. It functions as a legislative and consultative body, discussing church matters, making decisions on teachings, discipline, and practices, and advising church leadership. While it holds a significant historical and spiritual role, it operates within the broader framework of the Anglican Communion, emphasizing tradition, doctrine, and the church’s mission within society. Its proceedings are generally conducted with solemnity and respect for ecclesiastical processes.
