Six CANA priests, a postulant for the priesthood and one priest under the oversight of an American bishop attached to the Province of Kenya met with CANA Suffragan Bishop David Bena for the traditional Holy Week renewal of ordination vows. The clergy also received holy oils blessed by the bishop.

The Northeast portion of the Convocation of Anglicans in North America is a healthy microcosm of the growing movement. Nigerian and American priests serving in New York, New Jersey and Connecticut were present for the first gathering of CANA clergy in the Northeast. While not all CANA priests in the Northeast were able to participate, it was a good start for this corner of the Anglican realignment in North America.
