Anglican Church to Remove Christian Language From Baptism

(Time) A group of clergymen have submitted documents to the General Synod, the governing body of the Anglican Church, calling on it to prepare alternatives for the Common Worship baptismal services, which are used at the majority of Anglican christenings. It's their hope that doing so will make them more accessible and interesting to non-churchgoers—including the many "unchurched" parents and godparents who participate in the 139,000 Anglican baptisms conducted in the country every year.
