Recently, Revd Dr. Richard Sudworth OBE, Secretary for Inter Religious Affairs to the Archbishop of Canterbury and National Inter Religious Affairs Adviser for the Church of England, paid a visit to ISKCON Bhaktivedanta Manor. He was joined by Angeline Leung, the Executive Assistant for the Church of England’s Inter Religious Affairs & Ecumenical. Leung also serves on the Faith and Public Life team, based at Lambeth Palace, which hosted a historical interfaith event last November.
“This visit came after I was invited to Lambeth Palace in London,” explained Visakha Dasi, Bhaktivedanta Manor’s Temple President, “I met King Charles III and the Archbishop of Canterbury there. After I invited the Archbishop to Bhaktivedanta Manor, he sent his “right-hand man” who specialises in interfaith relations.”
Sudworth, appointed to his current positions in 2018, holds a Ph.D. in Christian-Muslim relations and has written several books on interfaith engagement. Last year, King Charles III appointed him as an Officer of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire (OBE) for his laudable services to interfaith relations and cohesion.
