Together in Mission and Ministry, the Porvoo Common Statement, agreed in 1993 by the Porvoo Conversations between the British and Irish Anglican churches and the Nordic and Baltic Lutheran churches, is those churches' own primary statement establishing their mutual ecclesial communion. As the churches' own agreed text, it is fully authoritative for what the participating churches actually agreed to, which is the fact this atlas cites it for. It is the churches' own ecumenical agreement, not an independent theological analysis of Anglican-Lutheran relations, and a claim about how the communion has worked in practice since needs a separate source.
