Why We’re Anglican

There are three main reasons why we are a part of the Anglican Church in North America.

  • We believe that the practices of the church ought to be rooted in the teachings of God’s Holy Word. We do not believe that we have the definitive worship form. However, we do believe that there are specific practices found throughout Scripture that should be included within worship for the holistic formation of a disciple.

    Some of these elements include:
    A call to worship where we bless God’s name (Psalm 100:4)
    Prayer for God to open our lips to praise him (Psalm 51:15)
    Worshiping God in Song (Col. 3:16)
    The reading and proclaiming of God’s Word (Acts 2:42)
    Public Prayer and Confession (Acts 2:42)
    The celebration of the Lord’s Supper (1 Cor. 11:26)
    The sending forth of the people (Mtt. 28:19)

  • We do not believe the church is without error; however, we also believe the saints who have come before us have many things to teach us. Therefore, we look to our past to more fully engage our present.

    There are four primary historical sources that ground our worship:

    The Apostle’s Creed
    The Nicene Creed
    The Book of Common Prayer
    The 39 Articles

  • Anglicanism is truly a Global Church. With 80 million Anglicans worshipping around the world, when you proclaim the liturgy at Trinity Anglican, you are joining 80 Million of your brothers and sisters around the world. Anglicanism is a cross-cultural movement. The majority of Anglicans worship in the Southern Hemisphere. Each week, your prayers join with Anglicans from every tribe, tongue and nation. Our primary global connection is with the Church of Rwanda.

Trinity comes under the authority of the Diocese of the Rocky Mountains.
