We Are Anglican

With over 80 million members in 164 countries, the Anglican Communion is the 3rd largest Christian denomination in the world (behind Roman Catholicism & Eastern Orthodoxy). The Majority World, especially Africa & Asia, are home to Anglicanism’s most faithful and vibrant churches. This is a fully global expression of faith! Over the last two decades, a renewal movement has begun to spread from those areas back to North America and Europe. The Anglican Church in Rwanda began a missionary movement in the United States that resulted in the planting of our sending church, International Anglican, in 2002, as well as many other churches over the last fifteen years. A revitalized national Anglican Church, the Anglican Church in North America (ACNA), emerged in 2009 out of these worldwide renewal efforts.

A Global Family

We are part of the Diocese of the Rocky Mountains

“We are under the authority of scripture and place special emphasis on the reading and study of God’s Word. The Bible shapes our imagination, worship, values, practices and common life.

We are shaped specifically by Reformational Anglican Theology which recaptures the ancient and biblical truths of the grace and good news of the gospel.

We are rooted in the rhythms and beauty of worship shaped over the centuries – we have a story and we have a history that help us to be rooted and relevant. We are sacramental and liturgical, practicing holistic Christian formation that involves the head, the heart, and the body, emphasizing imagination as well as information, and producing disciples with gospel-shaped desires. We believe that liturgy is a form of hospitality, enabling people from all walks of life to participate together in worship.

We are completely dependent on the Holy Spirit’s presence, power and movement.”

We Are Affiliated with the Anglican Church of North America

Anglicanism is a worldwide body of Christians responding to God’s revelation through Jesus Christ. Anglicanism brings together the authority of the Bible, the historic faith, and the beauty of structured prayer. It is rooted in tradition, yet contemporary in practice. It is united in substance, yet diverse in expression. We are a global family living out our faith in local communities.
