Are Priests Prepared to Baptize a Clone?
Ambridge, PA – May 1, 2026 – As the world of bioethics advances faster than the church is teaching about issues such as artificial wombs, designer babies, surrogacy, and genetic selection, Anglicans For Life (AFL) is launching a new website on June 1. This website is dedicated to providing clear Biblical guidance for clergy when addressing complex bioethical questions.
Church members are already wrestling with difficult life-and-death issues, including infertility treatments, the moral status of leftover human embryos, and end-of-life care for aging parents. These decisions are being made in every congregation — whether or not parishioners bring their questions to their priest.
“The greatest ethical challenge of our time is not simply what we can do with technology and medicine, but who we are as human beings,” said Emma Waters, bioethics policy analyst and consultant for the new website. “In an age of technological utopianism, the Church must proclaim the good news of Biblical anthropology: that human beings are created in the image of God, with inherent worth, purpose, and dignity.”
Canon Georgette Forney, President of Anglicans For Life, added: “The mission of the new website is to apply Biblical principles to life, technology, and medicine, equipping Christians to navigate today’s bioethical challenges with wisdom. We uphold the inherent dignity of every human life and advocate for the responsible stewardship of technology and medical advancements in alignment with God’s design for human flourishing.”
Anglicans For Life is developing AnglicanBioethics.org as a stand-alone educational resource for the Anglican Communion. By offering Biblical, technical, and pastoral insights about each topic, the site aims to give clergy greater confidence to teach, preach, and counsel parishioners with godly wisdom, grace, and mercy.
Anglicans For Life is celebrating the launch of the new Anglican Bioethics Center website with special reveal events on Tuesday, June 2 and June 9, in co-operation with Trinity Anglican Seminary’s June Term classes. (311 11th Street, Ambridge, PA 15003 in the Commons Hall) In addition to presentations by Emma Waters (June 2) and C. Ben Mitchell (June 9), the event will start at 5:30 pm and conclude by 7:15 pm and include pizza, salads, and fun prizes! The final hour (6:15–7:15 pm) will also be livestreamed on Anglicans For Life’s Facebook page. RSVP here.
Anglicans For Life is the only para-church ministry in the Anglican Communion that equips and enables local congregations to provide Life-Affirming outreach and ministry, while educating and offering pastoral resources on the Sanctity of Life, including abortion, assisted suicide, adoption, sexual risk avoidance, and bioethics.

Run 3 lets you handle a determined alien escaping collapsing space constructions. The ground underneath you may disappear. Ceilings may be your new way. And one mistake? Lost in the stars. Each tunnel twists unexpectedly, and gravity isn't your friend unless you use it. You play on walls and ceilings in this orbiting obstacle course.
