However, I am busy with school and I did not take the time to check it. Right now I am posting Anglicans Ablaze in what little free time available to me. <br /><br />Both the REC and the AOC from what I gather are not considered Continuing Anglican Churches as they predate the Continuing Anglican Movement of the 1970s.<br /><br />I was until this past summer sojourning with a nondenominational church, which began attending when it was a church plant as I wanted to learn more about church planting, evangelism, and small group ministry. The church is no longer a plant, having been existence for 10 years this past September. I have been living here in western Kentucky for about 9 years. Over the summer I became involved in worship and preaching ministry at a local EMC church. The EMC church needs someone with my gift mix, skills,and experience.Robin G.

Rt.Rev.G.D.Cummings and several low church PEC clergy joined him in starting the REC. The next serious attempt at breaking away from the PECUSA was in 1963 by James Parker Dees, later made bishop. Bp Dees would lead the AOC for the next almost 20 years. <br />I was with the REC from 1981 to 2011 when I transferred by orders to the AOC and was accepted by Presiding Bp Jerry Ogles. I am now the diocesan bishop for the Diocese of the Epiphany which includes most of central United States.<br />Rt Rev.
