In new pastoral guidance, published on 11 December, the CofE has encouraged its clergy to create baptism-style ceremonies for transgender people to welcome them into the Anglican faith.
The guidance, approved by the House of Bishops, advises referring to transgender people by their new name and also details how elements including water and oil can be incorporated into the service, though it stops short of being a baptism.
