Gafcon reorders the Anglican Communion with only one foundation of communion, namely the Holy Bible and rejects the so-called Instruments of Communion, namely the Archbishop of Canterbury, the Lambeth Conference, the Anglican Consultative Council (ACC), and the Primates Meeting, which have failed to uphold the doctrine and discipline of the Anglican Communion.

Bishop Mullally has repeatedly promoted unbiblical and revisionist teachings regarding marriage and sexual morality. She cannot provide leadership to the Anglican Communion since she has failed to guard the faith and is complicit in introducing practices and beliefs that violate both the “plain and canonical sense” of Scripture and “the Church’s historic and consensual” interpretation of it. (Jerusalem Declaration statement 2). We pray that as she takes upon herself the weight of this historic office, she will repent, and earnestly work with the Gafcon leadership to mend the torn fabric of our Anglican Communion.

Gafcon Primates have summoned the world’s orthodox Anglican bishops to gather in Abuja, Nigeria, from 3 to 6 March, 2026.

We need funds to gather authentic Anglicans, guard God’s gospel, grow orthodox leaders, and generate missional resources, to God’s glory. Will you join the everyday Anglicans who have already given generously?

As I take on the responsibility as Regional Secretary for Gafcon in Europe. I hope to meet many of you in the coming months, but for now I want to encourage us to pray for the work of Gafcon in this region of Europe.

It is a great joy that Bishop Tim’s appointment to this full-time, dedicated role, will allow him to continue providing a relational episcopacy to those serving as leaders in the local AMiE churches and to lead AMiE in its vision of starting and strengthening churches for the salvation of many and the glory of God. 

Bishop Andy continues as diocesan of the Gafcon-established ACE (Anglican Convocation in Europe), and as Presiding Bishop of the Gafcon-established Anglican Network in Europe (ANiE).

We were saddened by the news of the resignation of the Archbishop of Canterbury and the reasons for his decision. While the Gafcon Primates have been critical of the Archbishop’s leadership, the circumstances of his resignation is not an occasion for rejoicing, but for grief and self-reflection.

While we have already made provision for the Anglican Network in Europe, which includes three biblically orthodox dioceses operating in England and Europe, Gafcon supports all faithful Anglicans, whether they choose to stay and provide a witness to the truth in their home church, or whether they wish to leave for the sake of conscience.
