Abstract	:	According to the ecumenical ecclesiology of the 1920 Lambeth Conference ‘Appeal to All Christian People’, Christians are called to make known to the whole world the fellowship of human persons that is God’s will. They are to do so by means of the visible unity of Christ’s church in faith, sacraments and ministry, which requires the union of churches in each place and the communion of churches in every place, for which universal acceptance of the historic episcopate is pivotal. While this ecumenical ecclesiology faced significant challenges during the following five decades within international Anglican ecumenism, it continued to be widely influential until hopes for the union of churches in each place went into eclipse from the 1970s onwards, with work towards the communion of churches in every place becoming unhinged from it. A re-imagining of the interdependence of local union and universal communion in the contemporary context is needed for the renewal of an ecumenical ecclesiology that holds together unity and mission in a relationship that is not narrowly instrumental but demonstrates the profound inseparability between the communication of Christ and communion in Christ.
