Synod is concluding. Catch up on what happened: evernote.com/shard/s164/sh/…
Synod finishes with farewells and prorogation. #synod #generalsynod
Matthew 19:9 (KJV) And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except [it be] for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery. #synod
Thank you, #Synod. Let's continue to show to the world that we are a caring and loving church.
Rachel Mann (Manchester) - Found it powerful to see Mark and Andrew work to support one another across such a big theological divide #synod #generalsynod
Fiona Gibson (Hereford) - Throughout this debate we have worked on the basis that the ordinand is the victim of abuse but sometimes they are the abuser who has manipulated the process #synod #generalsynod
Lucy Docherty (Portsmouth) - Marriage is not a dying institution but it is a complex one #synod #generalsynod
John Wilson (Lichfield) - Horrified at how we have put some of our potential clergy through the hoops they've had to jump through regarding divorce #synod #generalsynod
Patrick Richmond (Norwich) - There needs to be a process of discernment. Reminds us of the image of marriage used to symbolise God and His Church. #synod #generalsynod
Ross Meikle (Oxford) - How easy it seems to change the rules around marriage and divorce when it affects white straight people #synod #generalsynod
Bishop of Gloucester - important for there to be guidance issued. The guidelines need to be suitable for every person #synod #generalsynod
Pete Spiers (Liverpool) - Exceptional means unusual, uncommon and rare. #synod #generalsynod
Andrew Cornes (Chichester) - There are two sides to each story. We single this issue out because of the very tough teaching of the Lord Jesus Christ. #synod #generalsynod
#synod anyone know if supplementary business is going to be tabled? Whether there is or not will affect the timing of the perambulation of the sweeties bag 😉
Liz Goddard (London) - Former spouses want their voices to be heard and for their stories to be heard #synod #generalsynod
Alicia Dring (Derby) - Potential candidates have to relive their history and trust their future to someone who has harmed them in the past #synod #generalsynod
Bishop of London - Asks how we define exceptional circumstances #synod #generalsynod
Chantal Noppen gives me hope for the Church of England #synod

Chantal Noppen gives me hope for the Church of England #synod
RE @CottrellStephen stating he doesn't know (in his own experience) of a faculty that has been turned down. I'm not sure that's a good measurement. You simply don't attempt it if you know it's going to struggle to get through. #synod
Trust and obey: Matthew 19:6 (KJV) Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let NOT man put asunder. #synod
Back in the chamber for the final debate, ordination after divorce...a motion aiming to remove the C4 faculty. We're all shattered, but this is so important. #synod
An encouraging statement from +Leicester. Time for a rethink and reset by the Bishops. #Synod #LLF
Not getting to say this in #Synod please look at the family sheltering in the bunker in the icon There are grandparents and grandchildren, pets and a mother and another woman but no father. Missing because he is at the front fighting the battle 😔
Thanks to Ruth & the diverse chaplaincy team which is deeply appreciated by all @churchofengland #Synod.
Tonight my #synod prayers are for all (members and staff) who are weary. Which I think is probably all of us by this point! With thanksgiving for the passion, commitment and hard work of so many beloved children of God.
Lovely to see Fr Thomas Seville at General Synod, I really must visit Mirfield at some point this year. I miss it, and I never thought I would say that!
Don’t be afraid to participate in church life. We need to be the change we wish to see in the @generalsynod ✝️🙏🏿
So the significant amendments to the (vague) LLF motion before Synod - refusal to agree to disagree, and ‘legally secure structural provision’ - were defeated and we voted to move to next business rather than having yet another divisive vote #synod
Job done. That's the nightmare over until... July. #synod
#synod hero! If I can ever be half the chair Geoffrey Tattersall is, I will have done well!!!
#synod #generalsynod crap continuing? Haven't they had enough days of being bigots, liars, and looking down on people while re-traumatising church victims?Apart from the preening, the worst thing is seeing wicked people pretending to be a moral authority, using God's Name in vain
In an act (in my view) of NO CONFIDENCE in the LLF and PLF process Synod overwhelmingly votes to dismiss the Living in Love and Faith proposal from the Bishops and reject a final vote on it! #synod
The LLF motion comes to an end after 322 members vote to move to next business #synod #generalsynod
No one should have to spend 10 or so hours listening to #Synod and then listen back to it in order write a blog. There are few more astute Synod-watchers than Susie and this is probably as good as you'll find. anglicanfutures.org/post/what-happ…
#Synod now voting on passing to next business. That would draw a line under the discussion of LLF for this session.
#Synod rejects the temptation to introduce hard-edged structural differentiation into the LLF process.
