The Anglican Communion is one of the world’s largest communities of Christian faith.
Anglicanism (or Episcopalianism) forms one of the world’s largest communities of Christian faith.
The Communion is organised into a series of provinces and extra-provincial areas. The provinces are subdivided into dioceses, and the dioceses into parishes.
All of the provinces are autonomous and free to make their own decisions in their own ways – guided by recommendations from the Archbishop of Canterbury, the Lambeth Conference, the Primates’ Meeting and the Anglican Consultative Council.
