Anglican Church of the Resurrection, Indianapolis, USA

The Anglican Church of the Resurrection (ACR) started with a small gathering of some Nigerian Anglican residents in Indianapolis, who met in a fellowship gathering on July 17, 2002 at the behest of the Rt.Rev Peter Adebiyi (Former Diocesan Bishop of Lagos West, Church of Nigeria Anglican Communion). During the gathering, the Bishop gave his approval for interested Nigerian Anglicans and other Christians who needed a safe place of worship to find a suitable place and gather for worship. The Bishop encouraged the then Ven. Amos Fagbamiye (former Dean and Bishop of ACR) to shepherd the people who genuinely yearned for their own space so that they have their own Nigerian indigenous worship like back home. In over twenty years of its existence, ACR has gone through some changes to its status from being a parish Church to a Cathedral and now a Parish church again in line with the Mission of the Church of Nigeria (Anglican Communion)

ACR's mission statement is “But we preach Christ crucified: a stumbling block to the Jews and foolishness to the Gentiles, but to those whom God has called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God” 1 Corinthians 1:23-24.
