From praise to grief: How Christian denominations reacted to Supreme Court's abortion ruling

By Samantha Kamman, Christian Post Reporter

Anglican Church in North America (ACNA) 

The Anglican Church in North America (ACNA) responded to the court's ruling in a statement declaring: 

"The inherent value of human life is revealed in the Scriptures, and this biblical commitment is reflected in the Anglican Church in North America's Constitution and Canons which calls all members and clergy 'to promote and respect the sanctity of every human life from conception to natural death (Title II.8.3).'"

Georgette Forney, president of Anglicans for Life, stated that the organization recognizes "this decision requires the development of additional pre and post-pregnancy support and resources for women and families facing an unexpected pregnancy."

"Unplanned pregnancies should be met with planned resources and support, which is what Anglicans For Life has focused on in the past and will continue to emphasize, to a greater degree, in the future," she continued.
