CEEC launches provisions for C of E orthodox evangelicals following Synod

John Dunnett

Friday 17 November 2023, London, UK: The Church of England Evangelical Council (CEEC) has launched two new initiatives today following General Synod’s support for the bishops to move ahead with the implementation of Prayers of Love and Faith (PLF).  

The first provision is for spiritual oversight for those who no longer feel able, in good conscience, to seek spiritual leadership from their diocesan bishop(s). CEEC has convened a group of Honorary Assistant bishops who have agreed to provide this spiritual support to clergy and congregations around the country.

The second provision being launched today is the Ephesian Fund - a new national stewardship fund. This new charitable Fund will enable people in churches across the dioceses to continue to support orthodox Anglican ministry when in good conscience they might otherwise withdraw or reduce their giving to a Church of England church as a result of their bishop’s support for Prayers of Love and Faith at General Synod.
