Jurisdictions coming together in the Anglican Church in North America are the Anglican Coalition in Canada, the dioceses of Fort Worth, Pittsburgh, Quincy and San Joaquin (of the Anglican Communion Network), the Anglican Mission in the Americas, the Anglican Network in Canada, the Convocation of Anglicans in North America, the Reformed Episcopal Church, and the missionary initiatives of Kenya, Uganda, and South America’s Southern Cone. Additionally, the American Anglican Council and Forward in Faith North America are founding organizations.<br /><br />The website/url is:http://www.acn-us.org/archive/2009/03/anglican-church-north-america-recognized.htmlFrank Remkiewicz aka “Tree”https://www.blogger.com/profile/00501821790434895826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10326675.post-81131615232985255862009-05-21T20:26:40.583-04:002009-05-21T20:26:40.583-04:00let's see...

I think it's safe to name CANA's Anglican D...Mark,<br /><br />I think it's safe to name CANA's Anglican District of Virginia, which includes Truro, The Falls Church,their Northern Virginia plants, and a few others in the Commonwealth. I didn't dig very far into the CANA website - there are about 75 churches total but I didn't see a breakdown into districts.<br /><br />The American Anglican Council lists a diocese of Dallas (plus two others in Quincy and Ft. Worth, but are the break-away dioceses already listed?) Quite possibly that's a net of one from the three.<br /><br />So, there's two more for you, I think. <br /><br />Mark, no doubt you have already reviewed the church lists on Acronymite web sites. I think most people would think there's a bit of consolidation needed for a realistic diocese count - and that's assuming none of the groups want to maintain their independent dioceses. And of course each list refers people looking for a church to those affiliated in partner groups. I see that as practical - not deceptive - but it does require someone to set up a spreadsheet to cull it all out and a little database would be better. I'm guessing that the ACNA organizers are doing just that. It wouldn't be that difficult an exercise until you headached your way through the task of verifying all the duplicates.<br /><br />I know I'm not saying anything new to people who've been following all this. Newcomers to the story: you have some leads to sort it all out if you don't want to wait for ACNA to publish a list.Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09748809418423591030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10326675.post-46748823373304337142009-05-21T15:55:19.433-04:002009-05-21T15:55:19.433-04:00I understand from Madre Lizabet that birthday wish...I understand from Madre Lizabet that birthday wishes are in order here at Preludium.<br /><br />¡Feliz cumpleaños Padre Mark!Brother Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06333089314994730330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10326675.post-77866803810059060582009-05-21T15:31:48.809-04:002009-05-21T15:31:48.809-04:00The Diocese of the Rolliexqueenies

Last I heard the jury was out on REC being in anything and at the rate they are declining, they don't add all that many diocese. Ugandan and Kenyan holy people ordain women too, so they can't be in anything with Nigerian or Southern Cone holy people.<br /><br />It is all so confusing when some humans set off to be really, really holy and some decide to be really, really, ultra-really holy.<br /><br />I think the 28 diocese count came from the same people that did primate signature counts for ABp. Akinola. The are rather a bit bad with numbers. In Canada, as Fr. Troll and I have noted, they don't do income and cost accounting well either.<br /><br />Happy Birthday!<br /><br />FWIW<br />jimBJimBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17312606954135884910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10326675.post-45581500258648056572009-05-21T12:28:46.446-04:002009-05-21T12:28:46.446-04:00How many bishops do those 28 dioceses have between...How many bishops do those 28 dioceses have between them?

How many is that? Not quite 28? Maybe they're still coming up with names; I remember how tough it was to come up with a name when I'd start a new band so I can just imagine what's involved with a brand, spankin' new diocese . . .Padre Mickeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07580459577853346369noreply@blogger.com
