REPLY TO BENCH

We uphold:
the faith handed down from Christ by the apostles:
the faith of St. David and all the saints of Wales:
the faith of the historic mainstream of Anglican Christians

WE CONFESS JESUS CHRIST
AS THE ONE AND ONLY SAVIOUR AND LORD.
WE PROCLAIM HIM AS THE GOOD NEWS FOR ALL PEOPLE

  • And so we affirm traditional Christian teaching on life and behaviour. We are committed to the sacredness of life, the holiness of marriage, and to an approach to human sexuality consistent with the teaching of the Lord and his apostles as passed down in Scripture and the tradition of the Church.

  • We believe that men and women are equal in Christ, but have different roles and responsibilities. We stand by the teaching of the universal and undivided Church on Holy Order, and are unable to accept the ordination of women to the priesthood and episcopate.

  • We work and pray for the reunion of all Christians on the basis of the Catholic faith of the undivided Church as received from Christ through the apostles, based on Scripture as the Word of God for all times.

  • We join with all men and women of good will in striving for a just and harmonious society, and the right stewardship of God's creation.


We take as a summary of our aims the words of St David, Patron of Wales:

BE JOYFUL: KEEP THE FAITH !

Fr Alan Rabjohns (Chairman)

Extract from letter to Welsh Bishops January 2010

As you know the initiative of Pope Benedict XVI with regard to traditionalist Anglicans emerged during our meeting with you. It is still too early to say what the reaction of members of Credo Cymru will be to this but many have commented on the contrast between the generosity of another communion and the provision offered by our own.
