About Us

The Convocation of Anglican Churches is an evangelical, liturgical, community of Christians with congregations and/or ministries in Tennessee, Alabama, Ohio, Mississippi, Texas, Oklahoma, and other states. We are Anglican in practice, but broad enough to welcome and work with Christians of other traditions. Our belief and practice are traditional, believing that any innovation must meet the test of Holy Scripture, Tradition, and Reason. We are a Church firmly committed to demonstrating the love of Jesus Christ to all persons in our worship and in our daily lives. 

We are a member Church of the Orthodox Anglican Communion.   The Orthodox Anglican Communion is a global movement of Christians committed to the historic faith in the Anglican tradition. Established in 1964 and with over one million lay members, the Orthodox Anglican Communion is the largest such fellowship of Churches not affiliated with the See of Canterbury. 

We are traditional Anglicans. Anglicanism is easily summarized by a statement made by Bishop Lancelot Andrews (1555-1626);  "One Bible, two testaments, three creeds, from four councils, over the first five centuries".  Our faith is grounded in the scriptures, which we believe to be the divinely inspired word of God.  Our beliefs are summarized in the Nicene Creed and the Apostles Creed.   We utilize the Book of Common Prayer in our worship.  

If you enjoy a challenge and feel led to be part of something new and exciting that involves serving God and others, you are invited to become part of a Church Planting team. Your talents, time, and prayers are needed and welcomed. Congregations are now forming. To find the location of the Congregation nearest you, contact us via our contact page. Your information will only be used to provide you with the name, email address, and phone number of the minister closest to your location. Clergy who wish to explore affiliation with the us, or those who wish to explore a call to the ordained ministry, should contact the Bishop via this website or our facebook page.

The Convocation of Anglican Churches is a growing organization of churches.  The goal of our Church is to establish churches all throughout the United States.  Our goal is simple, to build churches that truly serve their respective communities.   We are not a “one size fits all” Church.  We realize that so much has changed in our culture that we must be willing to work in our culture to proclaim the gospel.  With that said, we will never compromise on doctrine and the teachings of scripture.  Some of our churches are very much traditional in their style of worship, while others may use different music and modified liturgies to meet the needs of those they serve.   The dedicated clergy of the Anglican Convocation serve in ministries in several states.  In addition to their ministries within the walls of the Church, they provide education, counseling, domestic violence services, literacy training, nursing, and many other needs services.  Their ministries are a testament to the profound effect God’s love has on the communities they serve.  We are seeking those who may feel God has placed a call on their life.  We particularly need clergy in Texas, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Mississippi, and Arkansas.  Bi-lingual or Spanish-speaking ministers are especially needed!      For more information, or to receive help in discerning your call, message the Bishop through this page.
