I know it’s a sin to click my own Google ads, but sometimes I find them interesting and can’t resist.
Not that there is anything forbidden (I think) about the West Australian Apostolic District of the Anglican Catholic Church in Australia.
I’m just surprised it exists because I had never heard of them before.
According to their web site: “The Traditional Anglican Communion (TAC) is a worldwide association of Continuing Orthodox Anglican Churches, working to promote the Catholic Faith as the Anglican Church has received it and to resist the secularization of that Church.”
I’m vaguely aware of divisions in the Anglican Church about women priests, gay priests, women bishops, etc. Those issues get headlines whenever there’s a synod or controversial ordination.
I’m also aware of the desire among some Anglicans for unification with the Catholic Church. To me that would be a desirable outcome.
The “Traditional Anglicans” point out they are not in communion with the Archbishop of Canterbury, but don’t explain why they won’t receive communion from the Bishop of Rome.
