Our Beliefs

  • Yes. We are a Christian ministry serving within the Anglican tradition. We preach the gospel of Jesus Christ as it has been revealed in the Scriptures and handed down through the centuries.

  • “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.” (John 3:16)

    God created the world and made us to be in loving relationship with him. Though created good, human nature became fatally flawed, and we are now all out of step with God. In Bible language, we are sinners, guilty before God and separated from him.

    The good news of the Gospel is that God took loving action in Jesus Christ to save us from this dire situation. The key facts of this divine remedy are these: God the Father sent his eternal Son into this world to reconcile us to himself, to free us to love and serve him, and to prepare us to share his glory in the life to come. Jesus was born of the Virgin Mary through the Holy Spirit, lived a perfect life, died for our sins, and rose bodily from the dead to restore us to God. Given authority by his Father, Jesus now rules in heaven as King over all things, advancing God’s kingdom throughout the world. In the fullness of time, Jesus will return to establish his kingdom in its glory on earth, and all things will be renewed.

    Reigning in heaven over all things, Jesus Christ continues to draw sinners to himself. He enables us by his Holy Spirit to turn wholeheartedly from our sinful and self-centered ways (repentance), and to entrust ourselves to him to live in union and communion with him (faith). In spiritual terms, sin is the way of death, and fellowship with Christ is the way of life.

  • Anglicanism is often referred to as a “Reformed Catholic” tradition.

    As a Reformed tradition, we believe in the Holy Scriptures as our ultimate authority, we preach the doctrine of justification by faith alone in Christ alone, and we allow our clergy to marry.

    As a Catholic tradition, we celebrate Holy Communion each week, we draw upon the wisdom of the historic Church, we practice a liturgical style of worship, and we are led by Bishops, Priests, and Deacons.

    If you are looking for a Christian tradition that is both biblically robust and rooted deep in the history and tradition of the Church, look no further.

    Notable Anglicans throughout history include William Tyndale, Thomas Cranmer, Queen Elizabeth I (& II), George Herbert, John Wesley, Jane Austen, William Wilberforce, John Stott, J.I. Packer, and N.T. Wright.

  • If you are looking for a succinct Anglican “Statement of Faith,” then look no further than the Thirty-Nine Articles of Religion. More broadly, we affirm the historic creeds of the Christian Church (Apostles’, Nicene, and Athanasian) without reservation.

    As a ministry of the Anglican Diocese of the Western Gulf Coast, we also ascribe to the Jerusalem Declaration.

  • Campus Communion is a ministry of the Anglican Diocese of the Western Gulf Coast (DWGC), which is part of the Anglican Church in North America (ACNA).
