Abbreviations | Parish Locator

Our Directory covers approximately 1100 parishes in the USA and Canada. It lists US and Canadian parishes in the Anglican tradition that affirm the historic Biblical Christian gender roles in both priesthood and marriage.

The Directory provides contact info, clergy names and service schedules. From 1988–2008, the Directory was published in printed form. Since 2009 we have offered it as a free, searchable online database.

This Directory is dedicated to all who work for the preservation and propagation of orthodox Anglicanism—especially to those who strive for unity and harmony within the movement.

Many of these parishes are in the Continuing Anglican movement known as the Continuum, that is, those jurisdictions deriving from the 1977 St. Louis Congress called by the Fellowship of Concerned Churchmen (FCC) in response to the 1976 Episcopal General Convention's decision to ordain women to the priesthood and promulgate a new Book of Common Prayer.

Although the Anglican Church of North America that was organized after the St. Louis conference devolved into numerous separate jurisdictions, the Continuum has maintained a unity in that its constituents stand by the Affirmation of St. Louis and its prescription of the US 1928 and Canadian 1962 Prayer Books as standards of faith and practice.

The FCC is encouraged by the numerous efforts around the world seeking the unified orthodox Anglican witness that it was formed to pursue, and toward which it has worked since 1973, often amidst a sea of conflicts. We hope that this Directory will promote more inter-jurisdictional worship, personal and organizational communication, and ongoing healing in the Body of Christ, which is His Church, not ours.
