New Welsh church venture

A former minister in the Church of Wales is planning to set up a new congregation after the denomination liberalised its views on same-sex blessings.

The venture is being spearheaded on the Angle Peninsula, Pembrokeshire, by the Revd Josh Maynard (see photo) and his wife Rachel Maynard, along with others.

Josh Maynard handed in his resignation to the Church in Wales on 23 September and is currently working out his three months notice.
