Anglican Faith

The Anglican Church is a community of worshipping Christians, with more than 80 million members around the world. 

We welcome everyone to worship with us (you do not need to identify as Anglican).

The Vocation of Anglicanism

This quote from Paul Avis speaks to the gifts of the Anglican tradition within the Christian faith:

"I believe that the key to the Anglican tradition is that it attempts to hold together or bind together aspects of the Church that in some other traditions are allowed to drift apart, or become polarized... It reveals itself to be catholic and reformed, episcopal and synodical, universal and local, biblical and reasonable, traditional and open to fresh insight. In these ways Anglicanism holds together what we as Anglicans believe God, in the Christian revelation, intends to belong together... Anglicanism seeks to hold truths together in theology and practice in order that it may hold people together."
