Illuminating Orthodoxy
In Canadian Anglicanism
The Anglican Communion Alliance is a national organization representing Canadian Anglicans, coast to coast to coast. We have grown out of the grassroots response of Anglicans to the crisis that has been developing in our church over the past 50 years.
The ACA endeavors to be a rallying place for faithful Canadian Anglicans who want to see the Anglican Church of Canada embrace and live by the principles of its own constitution as set forth in the Solemn Declaration of 1893, and clarified in the Montreal Declaration of Anglican Essentials of 1994. We are striving to assist the efforts of all Anglicans in this country who wish to see their church remain in full membership with the global Anglican Communion. To that end, we support the Anglican Covenant and urge our church to endorse it and pattern our relationships with other Anglicans by it.
While being organizationally separate from the orthodox in other Anglican jurisdictions in Canada, we continue in informal fellowship with them in the cause of the Gospel while addressing the specific situation within our own Anglican Church of Canada.

Delayed last year due to the pandemic, excitement is building for the September 23-25, 2021 Dallas gathering of clergy and lay people. Radvo will feature an excellent lineup of guest speakers and preachers. It promises to be a joyous gathering, where the Communion Partners can gather for fellowship and purposeful renewal of roots in the "faith once delivered and the life-giving Gospel, and to encourage new vocations to ordained leadership in the church."![]()

In addition, there will be a pre-RADVO event hosted by the Communion Partners, focused on Congregational Leadership. There will be a dinner at Incarnation with keynote speakers on Wednesday evening (Sept. 22) prior to RADVO, followed by a morning of workshops and discussion together and closing with lunch. RADVO itself will start with registration desks open on 4pm on Thursday the 23rd. The hope is that this pre-RADVO gathering focused on Communion Partners Congregational Leadership will provide an opportunity for CP clergy and lay leaders to share ideas, best practices, and theological foundations for ministry in the congregations and communities that they serve. ![]()
