Anglican and Eastern Churches Association
The Anglican and Eastern Churches Association is a religious organisation founded as the Eastern Church Association in 1864 by John Mason Neale and others, with Athelstan Riley being a leading member. The purpose for which it was founded is to pray and work for the reunion of the Eastern Orthodox churches and the Anglican Communion.[1] In 1914, it adopted the present name when it merged with the Anglican and Eastern Orthodox Churches Union. According to tradition, the merger was arranged at a meeting under a railway bridge in Lewisham between the Revd H. J. Fynes-Clinton and the Revd Canon John Albert Douglas. In 1933, a dispute arose between Fynes-Clinton and Fr Robert Corbould on one side and Athelstan Riley and Douglas on the other.[2]
