Pope Leo XIV and the Anglican Bishop of North Africa, Dr Ashley Null have something important in common, namely a great affection for, and sense of a bond with St Augustine. The Pope, because he belongs to the Augustinian Order; Dr Null, because his sphere of academic expertise is Reformation Anglican Theology, which owes much to St Augustine. His writings deeply impacted the development of the formularies of the independent English church under King Edward and Queen Elizabeth. (Both Thomas Cranmer and Dr Null were attracted by a characteristic North African Christian theological tradition that centres on the ideas of grace and gratitude).
So it was appropriate that the two should meet in Algeria where Augustine was born and where, at what once was called Hippo, he was himself the Bishop.
Algeria was the first stop on Pope Leo’s African trip and though much of the press coverage has centered on the Pope’s words about peace and tyrants, this was also an important moment for the Christian Church in this Muslim country. At the Basilica of our Lady of Africa in Algiers, Bishop Null had a place of honour in the sanctuary where he was presented to the Pope as the representative of non-Roman Christian Churches. Later he went to Hippo (modern day Annaba).
