Anglican Church Welcomes First Female Archbishop of Canterbury, Sarah Mullally
The Anglican Church will welcome its first female Archbishop of Canterbury, Sarah Mullally, in January. Her appointment has sparked concerns about relations with African Anglican churches, which do not ordain women priests. Meanwhile, Japan prepares to elect a new leader this Saturday, with a millennial minister in line to become the youngest prime minister in over a century.
Munich airport recently experienced a temporary shutdown due to drone sightings, causing significant disruption for thousands of passengers. In the world of music, Taylor Swift has released her 12th original album, The Life of a Showgirl, expected to make waves in the streaming world and further solidify her pop music dominance. South Africa, meanwhile, has secured investments from China and India to bolster its car manufacturing sector, which has been hard hit by US tariffs.
The Anglican Church's spiritual leadership has evolved over centuries. The first archbishop was appointed in 597 AD, but the role's significance grew when Henry VIII broke with Rome in 1534. While Anglicanism is declining in Britain, it is expanding worldwide, with nearly 60% of adherents now in Africa. Sarah Mullally's predecessor, Justin Welby, resigned in November following a scandal involving the cover-up of child abuse.
Sarah Mullally's appointment as Archbishop of Canterbury marks a historic moment for the Anglican Church, but it also presents potential challenges in relations with African Anglican churches. In other news, Japan's election this Saturday could result in a new, youthful prime minister, while Munich airport's recent drone incident serves as a reminder of the potential disruptions such incidents can cause.
