Church of England to allow divorcees to be bishops
Dr Rowan Williams is in favour of allowing divorcees to become bishops.
The Church of England is planning to allow divorced clergy to become bishops for the first time, but critics have branded the move as “utterly unacceptable”.
The Church of England currently has a ban on divorced clergy, and those married to divorcees, becoming bishops.
But a report in The Sunday Telegraph has revealed the Church’s change of stance following last month’s meeting of the House of Bishops.
