The Global Fellowship of Confessing Anglicans (GAFCON) has announced its rejection of the Church of England's leadership and is reordering the Anglican Communion.
The Most Revd Dr Laurent Mbanda, Archbishop and Primate of the Anglican Church of Rwanda and Chairman of the Gafcon Primates’ Council, explained that in 2008, GAFCON first gathered to “respond to the abandonment of the Scriptures by some of the most senior leaders of the Anglican Communion, and to seek their repentance”.
GAFCON's decision marks a significant shift in the Anglican Communion.
