威尔士教会批准同性婚姻的祝福. Church in Wales approves same-sex marriage blessings.

威尔士教会投票决定永久允许在教堂服务中祝福同性婚姻,此前该教会从2021年开始试用期. The Church in Wales has voted to permanently allow blessings for same-sex marriages in church services, following a trial period that began in 2021. 需要三分之二的多数票才能做出决定, 并允许单个神职人员选择不执行仪式. The decision, made by the church's governing body, requires a two-thirds majority and allows individual clergy to opt out of performing the rites. 虽然同性婚姻在教会内仍然被禁止, 但这一举动标志着向更大的包容迈出了重要一步, 并预计将为未来的变化铺平道路. While same-sex marriage remains prohibited within the church, the move marks a significant step toward greater inclusion and is expected to pave the way for future changes.
