In Easter sermon, archbishop of Canterbury says money was not set aside because of ‘postcolonial guilt’
The archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby, has used his Easter sermon to say that £100m pledged by the Church of England to compensate for its complicity in the international slave trade is not “postcolonial guilt” but “the presence of the risen Christ alive in the church”.
Welby said the social impact investment fund announced in January was the right thing to do because the C of E “had done actions that denied the reality of God’s universal power and love”, which the church was “meant to live”.
