The Anglican Church North America (ACNA) started earlier this year when seven conservatitive Anglican communions and ministries came together. These include CANA (Convocation of Anglicans,North America) the AMiA (Anglican Mission in (the) Americas; the Reformed Episcopal Chuch; and others.

The parish you mention is either part of the ACNA; or, is similar to us. Several conservatitive anglican churches left the Episcopal Church (TEC). Others, including Christ The King in Kokomo, are new church plants, not break away groups.

In either case, sexuality is only the presenting issue. The heart of the matter is the authority of Scripture and Holy Tradition. If we set this aside, or explain it away, whenever it becomes an issue for our culture; we have made the shifting sands of culture our authority instead. So, the true issue is whether we choose to be historic Christians, or not.

that Jesus is my big Brother, and that when i slip up He is still pleading my case, because He knows my heart, and my weaknesses, and day by day, He overtyakes my weaknesses and places His character in its stead.

I am thankful I am blessed with several positions, especially
as all 3 are 'teaching' one of my many passions
I love Jesus, & life... I love people... I love helping a person be Saved, empowering us all, and encouraging enrichment...
