Currently, 22 out of the 38 Provinces in the worldwide
Anglican Commnunion consider themselves to be in either broken or impaired communion with
the Episcopal Church in the United States of America (ECUSA). There are currently 38 Provinces and
6 Extra-Provincial areas under the Archbishop of Canterbury. This count of those who are out of communion with
ECUSA has been reported by The Rev. Canon Dr. Bill Atwood of
EKKLESIA
and has been passed along to us by David Virtue of
VirtueOnline.
You may wish to go to the VirtueOnline web site to see a
provincial map of ECUSA showing the believed current status of each diocese regarding the consecration of Gene Robinson and the believed relationship of the dioceses to the new Anglican Communion Network. The dioceses who have endorsed the network, or probably will, are shown as purple. We recognize that this is a dynamic map, and it will be corrected, changed and redistributed as needed. It is offered to further the understanding of the politics of the current situation in terms of their geographical distribution.
