Orthodox Anglican Communion

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Orthodox Anglican Communion (OAC) is a communion of churches established in 1964 or 1967,[1] by James Parker Dees.[2] The Orthodox Anglican Communion was formed outside of the See of Canterbury; the OAC is not part of the Anglican Communion.[1] The Orthodox Anglican Communion adheres to the doctrine, discipline and worship contained in the 1662 Book of Common Prayer and the 1562 Articles of Religion.[3]

The OAC was created as a conservative alternative to the mainstream Anglican Communion.[2] The presiding bishop of the Orthodox Anglican Church serves as metropolitan of the OAC.[3][4] The Orthodox Anglican Communion claims to have "over one million lay members".[1]

The Orthodox Anglican Church is a member of the Orthodox Anglican Communion.[1] It was founded as the Anglican Orthodox Church in 1963 or 1964 by James Parker Dees, in Statesville, North Carolina.[2][5]

James Parker Dees died in 1990. Dees was succeeded as leader by George Schneller; Schneller resigned soon after due to illnesses. The leader thus became Robert J. Godfrey. In 2000, Godfrey resigned; Scott McLaughlin succeeded him as leader.[2][5]

In 1999, the group changed its name to Episcopal Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of America.[6] It then changed it to Orthodox Anglican Church in 2005.[7]

The organization "champions the 1928 Book of Common Prayer, emphasizes Christian orthodoxy, and insists on high moral standards".[2]

Godfrey and McLaughlin were signatories to the Bartonville Agreement in 1999. In 2007, McLaughlin signed a Covenant of Intercommunion between the Orthodox Anglican Church and the Old Catholic Church in Slovakia [cs; de; it; pl; sk], represented by Archbishop Augustín Bačinský [cs; pl; sk].[8]
