Canon theologians meet

The Chaplain-President is also Canon Theologian at Holy Trinity Brussels. Each Anglican cathedral normally has a staff-member responsible for education (called a canon theologian, canon librarian, canon chancellor or canon for education depending on the diocese). The Diocese in Europe has two: Jack McDonald in Brussels and Robin Gill in Gibraltar. The canon theologians typically meet for a conference once each year. Because of the pandemic, their last meeting, on 30th April, originally scheduled for St Paul's Cathedral in London, took place by Zoom. The main topic was the pandemic and how cathedrals can best respond to it creatively when their doors must be locked. The canon theologians are planning to meet in person next year. The picture shows the canon theologians at their meeting in Brussels in 2017, hosted by Holy Trinity.
