Anglican Catholic Church - Diocese of the United Kingdom

03/06/2026

Finally, after a great deal of hard work, not to mention considerable patience, on the part of Mr David Yates, a great friend to our Diocese, we have an updated ACC map.

It is, I hope, as accurate as it can be, although is the nature of such things that as soon as one presses the “publish” button, something changes or develops! This can be frustrating - but it is often a positive sign, especially when the changes are caused by growth and new life in our Church.

Thanks are due too to others who have given assistance in checking details, including Archbishop Haverland.

If there are any changes, or errors, please contact me by message or email.

The Parish of St Deiniol and St Asaph, Pembrokeshire were delighted to receive a visit from the Adams family from St Paul's Anglican Catholic Church in Michigan. Fr Miles and Fr Gordon were delighted to receive them at Upton Castle and have good fellowship with our brothers and sisters from "across the Pond".

Congratulations to our bishop, The Right Revd Dr Damien Mead and ACC member Dr Roy Hipkiss, co-founders of Credo Care Fostering Ltd, the specialist fostering agency for disabled children in Lydd, Kent, who have just celebrated the agency’s 25th anniversary. As part of their planning for the next quarter century they have founded a new charity, the Credo Care Foundation, which was launched in the presence of HRH The Duchess of Gloucester on Friday 22nd May 2026, during her visit to mark Credo Care Fostering’s Silver Jubilee, and who graciously unveiled a plaque commemorating both events. May God continue to bless the agency and it’s important work. His Majesty’s Lord-Lieutenant of Kent, the Lady Colgrain, welcomed HRH when she visited Lydd, and has reported on the visit on Social Media.

Pictures from the ###IV Annual Synod of the Anglican Catholic Church Diocese of the United Kingdom.
Before the Pontifical High Mass, celebrated by The Right Revd Damien Mead, assisted by The Very Revd Canon Jonathan Munn (deacon) and The Very Revd Andrew Scurr (subdeacon), Bishop Damien renewed the dedication of the Diocese to Our Lady of Walsingham. This revisited the original dedication enacted by the first bishop ordinary, The Right Revd Leslie Hamlett, in 1992.
After the sermon, preached by The Revd Gordon Tall, the bishop received, into the full communion of the ACC, Mr Theo Wilmott.
It was lovely to have a small robed choir sing for us - a local ecumenical gesture which was greatly appreciated.
