Anglican Futures is about looking ahead, in the light of the evidence available today, to help faithful Anglicans pray and prepare for the future. But sometimes that involves looking back.
In October 2021, Anglican Futures predicted that the House of Bishops would seek to introduce experimental services to bless same-sex relationships in February 2023.
