The executive secretary of Anglican Mainstream UK has warned the Church of England that it cannot remain neutral on the issue of homosexuality as the Anglican Communion approaches another tense time in the run-up to the election of the new Bishop of California.

Canon Dr Chris Sugden told Christian Today that a fudge from the Episcopal Church in the US on the position of homosexuality will “not be acceptable” for most people in the Anglican Communion.

The comments coincide with a crucial week at Lambeth Palace where the Archbishop of Canterbury has led a number of senior bishops, including the Archbishops of York, Bristol, Durham, Exeter, Manchester, Norwich and Winchester, in a number of key consultations aimed at reconciling the rift over homosexuality in the Church. story
