Fraternity and Hope in Catholic-Anglican Relations
According to Archbishop Flavio Pace and Bishop Anthony Ball, the relationship between Catholics and Anglicans is strengthened by fraternity and hope.
In a historical context, the body of Queen Elizabeth I was moved and re-interred in the same grave as her half-sister, Queen Mary I, in London's Westminster Abbey, four years after her death in 1603.
The two queens were united by blood but divided by their religious affiliations, due to the Acts of Parliament between 1529 and 1536, which transferred spiritual authority from the papacy to the crown.
The 1534 Act of Supremacy declared King Henry VIII as the Supreme Head of the Church, a supremacy that was briefly repealed during Mary's reign but re-established during Elizabeth's reign.
The series of Acts of Parliament had a significant impact on the religious landscape of England.
This historical background highlights the complexities of the relationship between Catholics and Anglicans.
