The Traditional Anglican Church of America, formerly the Anglican Convocation of the Good Shepherd, is a small jurisdiction of conservative continuing Anglicans who are not in communion with the Episcopal Church in the United States of America or the Anglican Communion.
The Anglican Communion is the third largest Christian communion. Founded in 1867 in London, England, the communion currently has 85 million members within the Church of England and other national and regional churches in full communion. The traditional origins of Anglican doctrines are summarised in the Thirty-nine Articles (1571). The Archbishop of Canterbury in England acts as a focus of unity, recognised as primus inter pares, but does not exercise authority in Anglican provinces outside of the Church of England.
