Oxford Statement

Christian soldiers march on: "We invite people to re-affirm what we have always believed in Anglicanism by adopting the Jerusalem Declaration as a statement of their own faith and join with us in partnership in working to win the world to Christ." Link

Tale of Three Cities:
Jerusalem (location was providential) Declaration in city where the establishment of the universal Church was proclaimed by the Holy Spirit accomplishing wonders and speaking through Peter.
Oxford Statement in the city where three bishops that Queen Mary disapproved of were burnt at the stake.
Dublin primates meeting in the city where a young Anglican priest named Darby and his friends found a different manner of celebrating the Lord's death. Their followers were said to be the only protestant group in Britain unaffected by the German "higher criticism" of scripture. They read the Bible.
