New ACC website

I received an e-mail from Fr David Marriott to invite us to see the new Anglican Catholic Church – Original Province website. My congratulations for this excellent effort at modern communication!

It is very well set out and the language is accessible and clear. The historical explanations and account of continuing Anglicanism are well written. The central thesis is that continuing Anglicanism is only legitimate if it depends on bishops consecrated in the Chambers succession, supposedly with the intention of “saving” the credibility of the ACC and a few other similar jurisdictions from the encroachments of “imitations”, namely independent churches (mostly in the USA) using the name Anglican and getting their orders from episcopi vagantes. The soup is flavoured with a dash of Donatism! But, it is understandable.

The subject of the TAC and Anglicanorum coetibus has been carefully avoided. I don’t blame them!

I would welcome dialogue with Bishop Damian Mead of the ACC in England if the opportunity should ever come about. Time will tell.

  1. Hello Father Anthony,

    Via Facebook I have seen this website too. Very impressive indeed. As a part time web designer I am always interested to see what work others do. On Facebook I am also friends with Bishop David Mead, I enjoy his postings. Is it not ironic that he operates a Parish in the city of Canterbury? Yours in Christ,
