St. John’s is dedicated to the faith and worship of the One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church within the classical Anglican tradition. We are a small, friendly parish within the Anglican Catholic Church (ACC), proclaiming and upholding the Biblical, orthodox, and Catholic Anglican tradition in doctrine, worship, and discipline.
Our faith is revealed in the Bible, summarized in the Apostles’ and Nicene Creeds, and taught by the early Church Fathers and Councils of the early Church. We worship using the traditional Anglican/Episcopal Book of Common Prayer (1928 American edition) with music and hymns from the rich treasury of Christian hymnody.
Our goal is to be a vibrant and transformational orthodox Anglican Catholic Church in Hampton Roads of Virginia and to share the rich treasure of the classical Anglican Catholic Way of Christianity with the people of our area. We cordially invite you to join us!
Who really knows? I see Anglicans as really wanting to be catholics but they're so obsessed with their ties to the Monarch and the associated prevelidges....Oh yes Vicar...you must come to Tea! and bring your good wife (or boyfriend) Oh really who really needs them...after all they're really Protestants but they don't like the label!!!!!
You’re saying that you protested and “wanted to get back to the bible” but you’re not protestant. I think you should at least embrace that you are protestant, but not evangelical because you are catholic. I also don’t think you strayed that far from the Episcopal church because, as an Episcopalian myself, we are still in communion and catholic and believe the full doctrine handed down by Jesus to the apostles.
Mary the mother Jesus who appears at Bayside New York for two and a half decades said you cannot call yourself Catholic unless you are under the pope... Anglicans are Protestants they hung Catholic priests in England they stole the money in the church called the treasury at that time they stole the land they stole the church es.. the churches were so strongly built they built into the churches large precious stones that men with sledgehammers couldn't even get out so they had to use fire to try to burn out the precious Stones the Anglican Church put some of our Catholic saints to death one a female as they hit her with an ax she would holler out sweet jesus, sweet jesus.. PS this is all recorded in history plus a lot more.......
PLEASE COME HOME TO THE FULLNESS OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH ⛪ MARY AWAITS YOU ALL I DID NEVER LOOKED BACK THERE SERVICES ARE NOT VALID THEY ARE WORSHIP SERVICES NO
I cannot figure why a number of Anglican Catholic Churches accept lqbtxyz agendas. They have no problems with gay unions and accepting immoral behaviors.
@michaelciccone2194 The Anglican Continuing Churches(Anglican Continuum) especially The Anglican Catholic Church reject gay marriage, women's ordination, and gay clergy. They are not in communion with Canterbury.
If your church's worship follows the same pattern every week, then its systematic, and an expression of tradition. The question to ask is whether its a healthy tradition or an unhealthy tradition. (E.g. Is it like a good family tradition - like bedtime stories every night, or a prayer of thanksgiving at mealtimes at the dinner table?)
Henry the VIII absolutely started the anto-Pope English Church. King Charles is the pope, the Bishop of Canterbury is his puppet as our all the bishops. Subservient to the king, after Henry murdered his wives, he took complete control, grew very obese, and terrorized, the Catholics. The nuns and the monasteries were destroyed in the priests were killed. The English church is an antichrist church. I think Anglican Catholics want to have it both ways. They want to be Catholic, but the imperial Court has been Protestant for so long that it is a evil and suppressive force in English society. Most Church of England supporters are actually African. It's a mess. Just be Catholic. Help us work on our problems. The Church of England is terminal.
Father, I know you haven’t uploaded to the channel in a long time, but I am a young man driven by God to serve Him as a family man and a priest of the ACC. Might I ask, where did you attend seminary? Does Nashotah house offer seminary for Anglican Catholics? Blessed be, and thank you.
Hello You have to understand that people may already know this, they just think at some point errors came in and it went astray I think the problem is not people going around saying “I don’t want to follow apostolic tradition!” Nobody does that The problem people have is that they don’t think Catholic tradition lines up with apostolic tradition Obviously a lot of people didn’t or you wouldn’t have hundreds of years of ecumenical councils For example, there’s no evidence of asking the dead for intercession until 300AD, so people are going to question that and disagree with the practice Claiming unbroken succession doesn’t mean there’s no hesitation of teachings See the Pharisees, who might claim unbroken succession to Moses, yet we know Jesus rebuked their false traditions
It sounds like he does not understand the hypostatic union of humanity and divinity in the Lord Jesus Christ. He does not seem to understand that our Lord Jesus is also called the "monogenis" ~ only begotten. We do not qualify. He is the prototokos among many brethren. He is first, and then we follow.
Magna Carta 1215 A.D. long before Henry VIII " the English Church shall be free, and shall have its rights undiminished, and its liberties unimpaired".
I use Daily Office from BCP 1979 but the Lectionary comes from ACNA 2019, which some said almost similiar with BCP 1928. I speak Indonesian natively and daily so basically I recompose my own Daily Office from various BCPs because Indonesian Anglicans don't sell their Indonesian BCP outside their circle (I am a Roman Catholic). And I found lots of encouragement and nourishments from Daily Office for my spiritual life. God Bless...
Is Interesting how you saw a difference in you which it seems is working for you and congratulations on that, but on my end I feel more free to worship in an evangelical or non-denominational setting, first they all should know the songs and if they don't thats probably there are some new people coming into Christ, second the way you now worship the Lord for me is more systematically for my taste I feel i will feel like a robot on that settings versus worshipping the Lord and pouring out my emotions towards Him and let Him transform us. God says in 2 Corinthians 3 ;17 to worship Him in spirit and in truth. How i can worship God in Spirit and Truth if I don't involve my emotions? then i am not worshipping genuinely. When we worship in Truth and in Spirit chains has to break, yolks has to break and thats where the spirit is more susceptible to receive Gods healing. Also, worship doesn't necessarily have to do with singing but reading the Bible as worship, listening to worship songs, enjoying Gods creation etc. True worship is not confined to what we do in church or open praise (although these things are both good, and we are told in the Bible to do them). True worship is the acknowledgment of God and all His power and glory in everything we do. The highest form of praise and worship is obedience to Him and His Word. To do this, we must know God; we cannot be ignorant of Him (Acts 17:23). Worship is to glorify and exalt God-to show our loyalty and admiration to our Father. NOTE - God created Music and despite of the genre as long as it does not remind you of any worldly stuff then you are free to worship in truth and in spirit as long as is done genuinely. The problem we have now is that many producers now want to create wordily music into Christian music which i don't agree because if you came out from the world dancing in clubs with let's say salsa music then by creating a salsa Christian music my remind that person about her past and we can 't allow our brothers and sisters fall backwards, but if that was not my case then i can hear that Christian salsa music at home while i am cleaning and it won't remind me on my past because i was never a person to go to clubs etc. Makes sense? it all depends on what works for you but at church we have to be wise what kind of music we use because we have all kind of people coming to seek Christ not a club so the best songs i like is like Hillson songs, slow music that reach the heavens thats what i like and Spanish hymns. Just my honest opinion ;)
@@lauraanderson7358 1. not all anglicans communities ordain women as bishops or accept LGBT in clergy, I’d say that’s awful generalisation. 2. And so what if they ordain women? How does that give you any right to harass them online? I
As an Australian I somewhat agree. Westminster Abbey...really? It is not a functioning Abbey and hasn't been so since Elizabeth I expelled the Abbot and monks in 1559. So why do they persist in calling is an Abbey? it's an insult to the (catholic) Benedictine history of the place...which now resembles a museum rather than a church.
'To sort of bring it up to the present day..." Yeah let's just skip all the history of how you ordained your own with no apostolic succession. Your orders are invalid.
Thank you. In the Church I attend, young children who have not yet been confirmed receive a blessing but not the Body and Blood of our Lord. However, there is an Eastern Orthodox family who come to our church when they are on vacation because there is no Orthodox church to attend. My priest honors their beliefs and administers to their small children (big family) the Body and Blood of Jesus. That's what Jesus would do...."Let the Children come unto Me"
Thank you. I would very much like to become closer to God by joining an Anglican church but don't know where to start for myself and my family. My prayer is to one day be able to have the blessing of being baptised, as well as my children. We have been christened, but I feel a strong pull toward the Anglican faith. How would I go about starting my progressing journey of faith?
I'm Roman Catholic. My father converted into the Roman Catholic Church in the 1950s. Before he passed on, he told me the Anglican church he attended used Latin in part of its liturgy. However I found out later the Anglican church doesn't use Latin except in a few hymns. I have looked up Anglo-Catholicism in Wikipedia. It mentions some Anglo Catholic Churches have used the Tridentine Catholic rite of mass in English or in Latin. Do you know what type of sect or Churches use this form of Liturgy in the past and or up today? Could the church my father attended be this form of Anglicanism?
If you want Latin then attend a Tridentine Mass.if you want authentic Anglicanism that's also valid then find an ordinariate Catholic Church which is Anglican Tradition but in full-union with Rome
