About us
Above all we are a Christian Church and we are also an Anglican Church
What does it mean to be Anglican? How do we differ from other Churches?
-
We are in a Communion of over 70 million people, spread all over the world.
-
We see ourselves as both Catholic and Reformed.
-
We base what we believe on Scripture – but have a very high regard for both Tradition and Reason.
-
We are an Episcopal Church – led by bishops.
-
We are a sacramental church.
-
We hold to the teachings of the early Councils of the Church, and the beliefs expressed in the Creeds.
-
We are not the church – we are part of the Universal Church.
-
We have our origins in the Church of England – but all parts of the Anglican Church are autonomous.
-
We hold the Archbishop of Canterbury in high esteem – but he is the first among equals.
-
We do not think that we know the right way – but we are willing to look for it!
-
We have as many failings as everyone else!
We try to welcome everyone.
