“Now here is the biggest howling silence in the whole text of LLF. Nowhere would its readership learn that the Early Church, such a touchstone for LLF’s discussion, never associated marriage with any ceremony celebrated in church.”

Diarmaid MacCulloch on the Church of England’s “Living in Love and Faith” — well worth reading, friends…

Today I believe the Church of England took a small, somewhat faltering step towards being in right relationship with our LGBT sisters and brothers, who want to live in faithful covenant together. I long for more welcome, inclusion and ‘being with’ but it’s a start. #Synod #LLF

We apologise for the hurt we have caused to the LGBTQ+ community. Now here are prayers for them and their 'covenanted friendships' ... In denying people the dignity of having their relationships recognised for what they are, you render your apology worthless @churchofengland@twitter.com #LLF
