About the Episcopal Church

The Episcopal Church in the United States , having its roots in the Church of England, is also an Anglican Church. Like all Anglican churches, the Episcopal Church is distinguished by its standing in both Protestant and Catholic traditions, its insistence that people be able to worship in their first language, their use of a Book of Common Prayer, and their reliance on all three resources of Scripture, Tradition, and Reason in interpreting God's Word.
