Orthodox Anglican Communion information


The Orthodox Anglican Communion (OAC) is a communion of churches established in the United States, in 1964 or 1967,[1] by James Parker Dees.[2] It was formed outside of the See of Canterbury and is not part of the Anglican Communion.[1] The OAC adheres to the doctrine, discipline and worship contained in the 1662 Book of Common Prayer and the 1562 Articles of Religion.[3]

The OAC was created as a conservative alternative to the mainstream Anglican Communion.[2] Its presiding bishop also serves as its metropolitan.[3][4] It claims to have "over one million lay members".[1]
