Who Are We Anglicans of Virginia Spiritually and Historically?   Click here for the full text and
"Our Resolve."
We are Christians. We are followers of Jesus Christ.  Our faith is an ancient one dating back
to the times of Jesus and His Apostles.  Our history is traced to the British Isles beginning
many say to the first century, when St. Joseph of Ari
thmatha visited his tin mines at
Gladstone bury, England. The first written mention of Christians in Britain is by the historian
Tertulliann about 200 AD.  He writes of "parts of Britain, inaccessible to the Roman, which
had yet been conquered by Christ." Origin writes forty years later that in Britain are
"Christians to be found."  Our faith was first brought to Roanoke Island on the Outer Banks
of North Carolina in 1587.  This colony would become the "Lost Colony." In 1607 Anglicans
would settle the first permanent Colony at Jamestown.

In a stormy sea of change.
We are a rock during these unsettled times.  We represent a new Anglican Communion called the Anglican Church International Communion.   We
are not a part of the Episcopal Church, nor the Church of England.  We have made significant progress and invite those who feel as we do to join this
work of not only preserving, but expanding  our faith handed down to us by Cranmer, Riley, Latimer and Laud: all who gave their lives for our
Anglican Faith.
Our Mission is simple: reach souls for Jesus.

We are a Church serving Anglicans of Virginia and around the world to worship in the tradition of men like George Washington and other founders of our Nation.  
We continue the Faith first brought to our shores and  established by Captain John Smith and the Rev. Robert Hunt who came to Jamestown Island in 1607.   We
use only  the traditional 1928 Book of Common Prayer taken from the original 1549,1552 and 1559, Thomas Cranmer's Books of Common Prayer.  We are growing
 and want to assist you in forming a parish. The new Anglican Seminary of Virginia is educating men for the priesthood. And seeks men called to His ministry.

A word from the
Archbishop for
International Provinces of
the ACID: Larry Johnson









The historic actions of the
bishops of the "new"
Anglican communion are
a relief and welcomed.
There are now twenty-one
provinces which are
members of the ACIC.

The continuing church has
had less than adequate
success in unifying since
the first Anglicans left the
Episcopal Church in the
1960's and 70's. Now with
other departures we have
another opportunity to
come together. I hope this
is achieved in the coming
years.

The ACIC and ACOVA
have worked towards this
goal and have experienced
wonderful success. Not
only are US bishops
coming together but we
are experiencing
traditional bishops from
around the world who
have the same challenges
and hopes. The ACIC
offers the greatest hope of
unity in my opinion.

Our mission  ahead must
be to reach souls for
Christ who are not and
have not been in any
church,  but who have
need of the saving grace
of God. As in the
centuries past with God's
help we will succeed.

Bishops interested in this
movement are invited to
ask for information.

Please contact me for
guidance on how to come
into communion with the
ACIC.

Many blessings to you.

In Christ's love,

Archbishop Larry W.
Johnson

It is the duty of all nations, to acknowledge the
Providence of Almighty God, to obey his will,
to be grateful for his benefits, and humbly to
implore his protection and favor.  1789.
                                           George Washington
Of all the disposition and habits which lead to
political prosperity, Religion and Morality are
indispensable supports. In vain would that man
claim the tribute of Patriotism, who should
labor to subvert these great pillars of human
happiness, these firmest props of the duties of
Men and Citizens. 1796.

While we look to celebrating the birthday of our Nation, July 4th,  may our Lord Jesus continue to bless a faithful
people. As the battle cry of 1776 rang out "No king, but King Jesus," let that be the battle cry of His people in 2009.
