The American Catholic

The American Catholic, successor to the Appalachian Anglican, exists to aid in creating and cultivating Catholic communities within the Anglican Tradition across North America and beyond. We invite you to gather, partner, and participate in the proclamation of that Faith that has been handed down through the millennia in the Church. The preservation of this living flame is that life-giving Faith of Christ's One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church which has been believed "everywhere, always, and by all."
