Who Are Episcopalians?
The earliest English settlers brought with them the Book of Common Prayer and some clergy from the Church of England. Before the American Revolution there were no resident bishops on our continent. Colonial settlers didn't feel they needed them. British bishops sat in Parliament, and were expensive to maintain. Without their presence, local authority in the American colonies developed in new ways.

Bishop Griswold's Greetings to Bishop Anderson
The promise of our deepening life together offers real hope for the broken world. The test of our full communion will be our faithfulness to the Gospel in mission and witness, in prayer and fellowship at God's altar. We ask the Holy Spirit to lead us in the days ahead, to unfold and deepen our relationship.
