Produktbeschreibung

The Anglican Church in America is a Continuing Anglican church body and the United States' branch of the Traditional Anglican Communion. The ACA is separate from the Episcopal Church and is not a member of the Anglican Communion centered on the Archbishop of Canterbury.The Anglican Church in America was created in 1991 following extensive negotiations between the Anglican Catholic Church and the American Episcopal Church. The effort was aimed at overcoming disunity in the Continuing Anglican movement. This was only partially successful. Most ACC parishes declined to enter the new ACA, resulting in a continuing existence for the ACC, while the remainder of its parishes and some of its bishops joined the AEC in forming the new church. In 1995, some parishes which had formerly been part of the AEC, primarily in the East and the Pacific Northwest, withdrew from the ACA and formed the Anglican Province of America under the leadership of Bishop Walter Grundorf.
