For the first time, the title Archbishop of Canterbury goes to a woman. Mrs. Sarah Mullally, the current Bishoppess of London, has been appointed by King Charles and will be confirmed in January 2026.
Born in 1962, Mrs. Mullally worked as a nurse and later became England’s youngest Chief Nursing Officer. In 2018, she became the first female Bishop of London.
She is married and a mother of two.
Mrs Mullally is a supporter of abortion: “I would describe my approach to this issue as pro-choice rather than pro-life.”
She also adheres to the homosexual ideology: "Our eyes have been opened to the harm that we have done, especially to LGBTI+ people."
Regarding homosexuals: "The church seeks to demonstrate love to all, because it reflects the God of love, who loves everybody."
Mrs Mullally has dyslexia, and has said that she finds reading out long genealogies in Scripture quite difficult.
The Archbishop of Canterbury is the Primate of the group 'Church of England' and the spiritual leader of the global Anglican Communion.
The 'Church of England' - whose ordinations are all null and void - has been staging "ordinations" for women as priests since 1994 and as bishops since 2015.
There are still Anglican Lay-Bishops who refuse to “ordain” women, such as Philip North of Blackburn. In inconsistency of thinking, he does “not doubt the validity of those orders that the Church of England bestows on female candidates and I hold their ministry to be transformative and grace-filled”.
