History of Traditional Anglican Church of America

 

Current Overview of the Diocese

Traditional Anglican Church of America (TACA) is an independent ecclesiastical district within the Continuing Anglican church. Its Primate, Abp. Rick Aaron Reid, sits in Newton, North Carolina.[1][2][3][4][5] Until January 2023, it was a diocese within the Independent Anglican Church, 1934 Canada Synod (IACCS/1934).[6]

TACA has a six-member House of Bishops, with three interior United States dioceses: The Chancery, which sits as the diocesan chapter of the East (Newton, North Carolina); and the other three diocesan chapters---of the Northeast (Perkasie, Pennsylvania/ Waverly, New York); of the West (Klamath Falls, Oregon); and, the Good-Shepherd Missionary Diocese (Logan, Georgia).[7][8][9]

Its formularies include the 1928 Book of Common Prayer and the 1940 Hymnal of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America, and it professes both the Thirty-Nine Articles of Religion and the Saint Louis Affirmation.[10][11][12] Its American-Southwest grass-roots beginnings in 1973, and its tenure within the IACCS/1934, may characterize TACA as a forerunner to the greater Continuing Anglican Movement.[13][14]

Origins of TACA

TACA started as an informal assembly of conservative Episcopalians in San Antonio, Texas, in 1966.[15][16] At first, an ad hoc mustering called together by Fr. Howard Edwin Caudill, a priest within the Anglican Catholic Church (ACA), a romp fellowship grew within the ACA’s Diocese of the Southwest (DSW).[17][18]

In concern over the issuance of four successive “trial-use liturgies” within the Episcopal Church of the United States, increasingly focused assemblages were convoked during the ensuing decades by another priest from the Anglican Episcopal Church in Ventura, California, Rev. Melvin Pickering.[19][20][21]

Eventually Pickering would construct a formal district in Las Cruces, New Mexico, as other southwest American traditionalists joined him at St. Mary’s Anglican Church at 140 West Taylor Street for worship and traditionalist education.[22][23][24][25] Vexation had, by this point, progressively arisen against several burgeoning modernist occurrences, which the convocation held were not liturgical: the opening of ordination to women by the U.S. Episcopal General Convention in 1976; the approved revision of the Book of Common Prayer of 1979; and the intention to adopt the “inclusion” aims set forth in the Alternative Service Book of 1980.[26][27][28]

By the 1980s, Caudill had joined Pickering, along with the rest of the Diocese of the Southwest, when the ACA merged into the American Episcopal Church (AEC), into which Caudill was consecrated a Bishop in 1983 by Bp. Robert Condit Harvey.[29] Several months earlier, in 1982, Pickering had been consecrated by Bp. Francis H. Benning.[30][31][32] Convalidating DSW as an AEC diocese, Caudill and his wife (née Padbury) had a three-bedroom house built, at 9022 Wellesley Manor Drive, in San Antonio, in 1984, which would serve as the Southwest vestry, but consequently, in 1988, withdrew 20 parishes from the AEC over hostile attempts that Caudill alleged had been undertaken by suffragan Bp. Anthony Forbes Morton Clavier, to interfere with affairs of the DSW.[33][34][35] Listing, as property owner, the “Anglican Church in the United States Traditional Episcopal,” Caudill also bought a de-sanctified Protestant church at 11919 Orsinger Lane, that he named St. Chad’s Church.[36][37][38] In the sanctuary and vestry, Caudill held Prayer and Eucharistic services and organized an adjunct seminary, which he titled St. George’s Seminary.[39][40] One of his and Pickering’s students was Robert William Baker, a postulant at the Episcopal Theological Seminary of the Southwest in Austin, Texas.[41] Baker would be listed as “Director” of the archdiocese in a non-profit licensure just as his rectorship of his own diocese began, in his native Oregon.[42][43]

Diocese of the Southwest

A growing apostolate, DSW was renamed the Anglican Diocese of the Good Shepherd (ADGS), and expanded to Hill Anglican Cathedral at Las Cruces, New Mexico, with Bp. Pickering realigning the jurisdiction there upon the death of Bp. Caudill in 1998.[44][45][46] The diocese was attracting conservative Christians, who had, by 1989, opposed the first incardination of a woman, by the Anglican Communion, Barbara Harris, as suffragan Bishop of the United States Episcopal Diocese of Massachusetts.[47][48] Moreover, the offering of ordination to self-professed practicing homosexuals by the Communion, in 2003, had impelled new traditionalist Anglicans to seek out independent conservative churches, such as ADGS, whose religious teachings would offer orthodox catechesis.[49][50][51] To this end, Mavis Anne Caudill, the co-founding Bishop’s wife, for years would teach Sunday school and adult religious education at St. Chad’s, which also offered a free orthodox seminary.[52][53][54][55] Diverse religious polemics within the Anglican Communion, included arguments as to whether the State was paradoxically manipulating churches by permitting the clergy to retain solely heterosexual marriage licensure.[56][57] Baker, who was now co-consecrated as a traditionalist Anglican Bishop by Pickering and Caudill, had by 1991 moved northward, to his hometown of Klamath Falls, Oregon, at first reserving public rooms at the Shasta Grange Hall community center for prayer services, until he became pastor at St. Mark’s Traditional Episcopal Church in 1992.[58][59][60][61][62]

In 2001, Pickering appointed his diocese to be the suffragan jurisdiction for the Anglican Church International Communion (ACIC) and dissolved the seminary, focusing on ethics advocacy within the greater Continuing Anglican Movement.[63][64][65][66][67][68] Presiding over a yearly traditionalist conference of 15 bishops at St. Chad’s, Pickering issued the ACIC’s statement that the election of openly gay priest Gene Robinson to the U.S. Episcopal Church in 2003, as the Bishop of New Hampshire, was a heretical elevation, and “by this action they have renounced Biblical teachings,” amid widening unrest within the Anglican Communion.[69][70][71][72] Pickering, in semi-retirement, had given his nod to the elevation of Bp. Baker as Senior Bishop, at a Synod at St. Chad’s in 2002, during which ADGS was renamed, “Anglican Convocation of the Good Shepherd” (ACGS).[73][74] Pickering, in 2009, acting as emeritus of ADGS, also enlarged St. Mary’s church’s occupant capacity.[75]

Assumption into a Proto-Continuum Synod and Diocesan Expansion

A decade later, in 2013, upon the archepiscopal adoption of ACGS into the IACCS/1934 historical synod, Bp. Baker became Archbishop of the newly named “Traditional Anglican Church of America.”[76][77][78] Chartered within an archbishopric that had been sired by the 1934 Synod of Canada—a writ of ecclesiastical independence that had occurred 44 years prior to the St. Louis Affirmation—the ACGS was now operating in parallel with the Anglican Continuum, but within a much older traditional context than the 1978 greater Anglican “continuation” had been [79][80][81][82][83][84]

TACA was now a sui iuris episcopate, a constituent autonomous diocese within an archprimacy, whose vintage1934 Synod had theologically anteceded the St. Louis Congress.[85][86] Abp. Pickering passed away in 2017.[87]

An outrider to the original “Tripartite Synod” (the organizational aim that was promulgated by the 1978 St. Louis Affirmation), TACA, an ecclesiastical polity, existing in its own right, sidestepped all the later identity crises, or any interior aggression, that had gripped the greater Anglican Continuum throughout ensuing decades.[88][89][90][91] While the Anglican Catholic Church suffered bitter coups, and new parishes within the nascent Anglican Church of North America permitted female ordination starting in 2009 (even though it had originally formed as an orthodox reaction against the consecration by the U.S. Episcopal Church of the active openly homosexual Bp. Robinson), TACA carefully organized its hierarchy with comparatively austere Low Church adherence.[92][93][94][95][96]

After his 2010 consecration of the new pro-Cathedral of St. George the Martyr, in Niagara Falls, New York, Archbishop Peter W. Goodrich, expanded the IACCS/1934, archdiocese from Hamilton, Ontario, Canada into the United States, and he adopted five new traditionalist Anglican sub-jurisdictions, whereupon he became Archprimate.[97][98][99] Goodrich also opened St. Matthew’s Cathedral College, making combined use of the 1,900 square foot St. George’s Church and the adjoining rectory, both built in 1927, and which he purchased in 2010 for $75,000, from the Roman Catholic Diocese of Buffalo, New York.[100] [101][102] Abp. Baker was thereby elevated to Primate and became the presiding archbishop of TACA, now an independent jurisdiction within an expanded North American See.[103][104]

Expansion of U.S. Polity to Southeast

With the 2013 election of Bp. Dr. Dwight David Irons of Georgia as Diocesan Chancellor, the district’s integration of the 1940 U.S. Episcopal Hymnal into daily service now advanced hymnary into liturgical practice, under Irons’s musical oversight.[105][106][107] Abp. Baker’s appointment of Bp. Louis Chopin Cusachs, a Sorbonne Theoretical Physics scholar, to oversee Louisiana, rounded out TACA’s Diocese of the Good Shepherd Southeast.[108][109]

In 2014, upon the emeritus repositioning of Abp. Baker, the Primacy passed to Abp. Irons. Sitting in the Las Cruces church as the pro-Cathedral, Irons was assisted by Canon Rick Aaron Reid, former Right Reverend of the Orthodox Anglican Church, a decorated Gulf War veteran.[110][111] The diocese was advised by Bp. Charles Klughart, the longtime archbishop of Unity Catholic Church in Springfield, Illinois, who became Suffragan in 2018.[112]

House of Bishops as Anglican Patriarchate

Appointments during the next three years would distinguish the greater episcopacy as comprising a de facto Anglican-patriarchate, with the Southeast pulling into ecclesial predominance.[113] After his elevation as Archbishop on May 1, 2020, Reid appointed Latin/Greek scholar Rt. Rev. Kenneth Walsh as Chancellor. Presiding from the Primate chancery in Newton, North Carolina, Reid would call forward Rev. Paul K. Leeman to be the Diocesan Bishop of the Southwest on June 1 of the same year.[114] On the same day, Reid named, as the co-Suffragan of the Southwest, the Right Rev. David C. Fleming, whom Reid also dubbed as the new Rector of St. Mark’s.[115]

With Fleming, who had long been the founding president of a freight transporting company, and with Reid—a decorated First Sergeant in the North Carolina National Guard and Field Manager in the North Carolina Department of Agriculture—the patriarchy of TACA became a customized permanent bi-vocational clergy. Included among these deeply religious Christian leaders, Cusachs was a renowned PhD. chemist and author. Bp. Yasuto Nozawa, an Electrical Engineer, was a founding member of St. George’s Seminary and is a Latin scholar. [116][117][118][119][120][121] Abp. Pickering was a commissioned Army Major and professional educator, who had served in both the Korean and Vietnam wars.[122]

By 2015, Klamath Falls Chancery operations were managed by then-Rev. Leeman at St. Mark’s.[123] Leeman, who himself was a heavy equipment and excavation company founder, was also the founder of the former St. Paul’s Anglican Church in Montague, California.[124][125] Assisted by Coadjutor Ebenezer Manuagwu of Nigeria, Leeman added oversight from Klamath Falls over the Southwest, issuing a new vestry membership and amending the Articles of the Church; he was consecrated Bishop by Abp. Reid at St. Andrew’s Church in Newton, North Carolina, in June, 2020.[126][127][128] Initiated during the 2016 Episcopal Synod at St. Mary’s Church at Hill Anglican Cathedral in Las Cruces, New Mexico, the Southwest now comprised the combined bishoprics of Abp. Jorge Martinez of Mexico, Bp. Don Nozawa of Missouri, and Bp. Leeman.[129][130]

While some contemporary Continuing Anglican churches were splintering, TACA was experiencing sudden episcopal attrition not long after Abp. Pickering, the founder, died in 2017.[131][132][133] Upon the momentous deaths, in 2020, of three of its Bishops—Baker, Irons, and Cusachs—the voting in of Bp. Reid as Primate sparked a necessary consolidation of the entire jurisdiction.[134][135][136] The new Archbishop, Reid, had been the four-year Canon and Suffragan for TACA, and had been co-consecrated as Bishop at St. Mary’s at Hill Anglican in Las Cruces, New Mexico (by Abp. Baker, Abp. Irons, Abp. Jorge Martinez Zendejas, Bp. Cusachs, and Bp. Walsh) in April 2015.[137][138] Reid, meanwhile, had been holding services at Calvary Baptist Church in Newton, NC, operating there as St. Andrew’s Anglican Church.[139][140][141][142] It was in this space, which he now commissioned as the Primary Chancery in 2021, upon his election as Primate, during a vote by the House of Bishops, that Right Rev. Francis Fontenot was also named by Abp. Reid to be Bishop for Louisiana; Abp. Cusachs had recently retired and moved to Charlotte, NC.[143]

Refining of Diocesan Territories, from East to West

At the time of this writing, in September 2023, Traditional Anglican Church of America is an autocephalous See and a theological constituent of the Independent Anglican Church, Canada Synod 1934.[144] One continuous sui iuris Anglican Diocese, it is comprised internally of two dioceses, the East and the West.[145][146][147] The East houses the Office of the Primate, Abp. Reid, at St. Andrews Anglican Church in Newton, North Carolina.[148][149] The West houses the Diocesan Bishop, Paul K. Leeman, occupying the western church, St. Mark’s Church, in Klamath Falls, Oregon.[150][151][152][153]

The House of Bishops consists of Reid, Klughart, Walsh, and Fontenot, in the East; and Leeman, Fleming, Nozawa, Martinez, and Right Rev. Ashley Edward Beckham of Texas, in the West.[154][155]

The Coadjutor of TACA is Fontenot. Suffragan episcopal duties belong to Klughart in the East, and to Fleming in the West. Walsh is the Chancellor of TACA.[156][157][158]

Three parishes compose the diocesan infrastructure: St. Andrew’s; St. Mark’s; and the new (as of 2021) St. Patrick’s Anglican Church in Perkasie, Pennsylvania. Rev. Gary Mullica assists at St. Mark’s. Fr. Michael DellaVecchia is the Rector of St. Patrick’s and is the TACA Training Director.[159]. Bp. David Fleming is the Rector of Saint Mark’s

Virginia Reid, wife of Abp. Reid, and Lisa DellaVecchia, wife of Fr. Michael DellaVecchia, are appointed Deaconesses. Donna Baker, widow of the Primate co-founder Robert, stands as advisor to the Primate.[160][161]

The Metropolitan for the Independent Mexican Episcopal Church, in externam unitatis in Tlalpan, Mexico City, is Abp. Jorge B. Martínez Zendejas.[162][163][164]

Future Provisional Communion Synod

As of July 2023, the permanent provision for Communion with other Traditionalist Anglican churches defines TACA’s witness of ongoing shared theological and Eucharistic fellowship. Thus, Communion has been enjoyed with such dioceses as the Reformed Anglican Church, whose pro-Cathedral is in Saint Augustine, Florida. (Although no longer in Communion with TACA, this past Communion is mentioned herein for illustrative purposes.) Moreover, the Emmanuel Communion, whose pro-Cathedral is in Indiantown, Florida, has current Communion with TACA. Additionally, Communion with TACA is also shared with the Traditional Anglican Church of Ecuador, whose Cathedral is in Santo Domingo, Ecuador.

Reflecting the principle of “custom and subsidiarity,” whereof material ownership or governance over congregations and missions by a superior prelature of the TACA Archdiocese is permanently nullified, religious bodies of TACA run themselves. A legal fiscal corporation is thus replaced by the convention of each member church owning and self-governing its own property according to its interior Customary. Thus, arch-governance by TACA has been defined by the Constitution and Canons as embodying Archbishopric rule of a broad-based and spiritual nature, according to the traditional Anglican formularies and exemplifying a Christian life of orthodoxy.

Moreover, a future “Communion Synod” which would mediate religious uniformity shared between TACA member bodies and other Traditionalist Anglican jurisdictions, would therefore also be a broad-based fellowship for which, as of September 2023, there remains a permanent provision.

As of January 2023, TACA ceased its Communion and theological subsidiarity with the Independent Anglican Church of Canada 1934 Synod.

As of June 2024, Rev. Canon Mike DellaVecchia was elevated as Bishop of the Northeast Diocese.

As of June 2025, Rev. Drew Darnell was elevated as Missioner Bishop.

ISBN-10: 0307957888 [“For the Church, marriage is the joining of one man and one woman in holy matrimony. In some denominations, marriage is considered one of the sacraments (albeit one of the “lesser” sacraments, like confirmation or ordination). As we have seen, however, the Church (at least the Christian Church) came to the “marrying business” somewhat late, that is in the Middle Ages, as a sacrament to be entered into by all church members seeking such a social arrangement. Before that time, marriage was strictly a civil matter. Still, in the minds of most Americans marriage is something that is done in churches and other places of worship. And so, if the government is going to prescribe who can and cannot be married, it would seem that the State is interfering with the internal workings of religious groups, prohibited under the establishment and free exercise clause in the First Amendment.” (Pg. 140)] [“The marriage issue has become so confused in this country because, for a very long time now, the State has automatically deputized ordained clergy to act as agents of the State in officiating at weddings.” (Pg. 142)] [“Gay marriage advocates are not seeking to change and religious body’s theology or practice of marriage. They only seek to add gay or lesbian couples to the list of people eligible to access the civil institution of marriage.” (p. 146)]

Print; ISBN-10: 0340426284; https://christianteaching.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/OurGodReigns.pdf; [“The Church of England officially accepts the supremacy of biblical authority. Canons A2-4 are at pains to stress that the Thirty-Nine Articles and the doctrine of the Book of Common Prayer are ‘agreeable to the Word of God’ and that the worship and ordination services are ‘not repugnant to the Word of God’. Canon A5 states that ‘the doctrine of the Church of England is grounded in the holy Scriptures, and in such teachings of the Ancient Fathers and Councils of the Church as are agreeable to the said Scriptures’. Article 20 of the Thirty-Nine Articles states: The Church hath power to decree Rites or Ceremonies and authority in Controversies of Faith: And yet it is not lawful for the Church to ordain any thing that is contrary to God’s Word written, neither may it so expound one place of Scripture, that it be repugnant to another. (Pg. 39)] [“In fact all who break the law are under a curse (Gal. 3:10,13). ‘Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God’ (1 Cor. 6:9-10; cf. Eph. 5:5-6; Col. 3:5-6). (Pg.65)] [“The only encouraging signs are in recent statements by a few bishops that they will practise discipline concerning practising homosexual clergy and ordinands. Writing in his diocesan letter of December 1986, the Bishop of Southwark says: ‘Anyone who resists authority runs the risk of punishment or censure. But in our church there is a long and honourable history of not using the law to stifle dissent, but relying on persuasion and the appeal of the mind of the whole church.’ If the bishop is referring to secondary issues such as aspects of ceremonial or details of liturgy, well and good. But sadly this liberal attitude is adopted by the church towards clergymen who deny basic beliefs or live immoral lives. (Pg. 65)] [“‘We ask that anyone in Holy Orders, who can no longer honestly and unequivocally assent to the basic doctrines of this biblical and credal faith which they were ordained to uphold and teach, be encouraged as a matter of conscience to resign their office and/or Orders without ignominy...’“(Quoting Diocese of Chichester; Pg. 66)]
