Grace Anglican Mission Placentia

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ-
This week I was pleased to attend our communion's synod in Ohio with our brother bishops and some of the other clergy from around the communion as well. We discussed a variety of topics, ranging from liturgical texts to church structural necessities; and I am most pleased with the outcome of our gathering. It was a chance for all of us to reaffirm our commitment to a common cause of building the kingdom of God; and to a wider commitment of unity among the various liturgical traditions which we find in our Anglican history. Our communion is a beautiful tapestry, woven with stories and souls from every walk of life and every imaginable gift; which expresses the richness of our faith and the dedication of those involved in building up our church. As the Archbishop of this diocese, I am proud to stand alongside my brother bishops and our Presiding Archbishop in our work of rebuilding Christendom; until all mankind shall be one family, one spirit in Christ: who shall have the honor and glory, throughout all ages.

*I would like to express my personal and professional gratitude to Canon Shannon Ramey for hosting and graciously shepherding the synod's events, Archbishop Barton for gathering us all together in prayer and work, and also our own Abbot Shaw for accompanying me in representing our Diocese at the Synod. Please remember them, and all the clergy and people of both our Diocese and our Communion in your prayers.

May God be with all our Bishops and Clergy and Lay representatives who will be at Synod this week!
Let us pray.
“O gracious Father, we humbly beseech thee for thy holy Catholic Church; that thou wouldest be pleased to fill it with all truth, in all peace. Where it is corrupt, purify it; where it is in error, direct it; where in any thing it is amiss, reform it. Where it is right, establish it; where it is in want, provide for it; where it is divided, reunite it; for the sake of him who died and rose again, and ever liveth to make intercession for us, Jesus Christ, thy Son, our Lord. Amen.”
(1928 BCP)

Are you looking for a spiritual home with Traditional Liturgy and a loving spiritual family? Do you feel confused or overwhelmed by constant politics on the Pulpit as opposed to sound Doctrine? Do you have questions about Traditional Anglicanism or perhaps never heard of us and want to learn more? Do you have work or family commitments or conflicting issues that make it difficult to attend Mass on Sunday?

If you have answered yes to the above, we can be of assistance. Saint Mary’s Anglican Mission is part of the Missionary Diocese of the Sacred Heart. We maintain a Traditional Catholic Faith in the Anglican Tradition which uses the 1928 Book of Common Prayer for worship.
Come and join us every Saturday at 5:30pm. for the Holy Mass.

We meet at:
Live Oak UCC
300 East Imperial Highway

O GOD, who by the leading of a star didst manifest thy only-begotten Son to the Gentiles; Mercifully grant that we, who know thee now by faith, may after this life have the fruition of thy glorious Godhead; through the same thy Son Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
