Last month, the Anglican Archbishop invited members of the group to move into Lambeth Palace, his official London residence on the south side of the Thames. In a ceremony on February 20, he formally welcomed four members of the community: a married Anglican couple, Ione and Alan Morley-Fletcher; a German Lutheran training for ministry, Oliver Matri; and a Polish Catholic consecrated sister, Sister Ula Michlowicz.
The first priority identified by Archbishop Welby is the renewal of prayer and the religious life within the Church.
