Press Release from ACNA on Civil Partnerships

PRESS RELEASE
Ambridge, PA
February 11, 2010

The ACNA

(a) aware of the distress caused by recent divisions between those who wish discriminate against civil partners in the Church of England and those who do not;
(b) recognise and affirm the desire of those who form the majority in the Church of England to remain within the communion family of churches that do not discriminate;
(c) acknowledge that this aspiration, in respect both of relations with the ACNA and membership of the Gafcon, raises issues which the relevant authorities of each need to explore further; and
(d) invite the Archbishops of ACNA and Gafcon to report further to themselves in 2011.
