The Anglican Communion is one of the world’s largest Christian communities. It has tens of millions of members in more than 165 countries around the globe.
Anglicanism is one of the traditions or expressions of Christian faith. Others include Roman Catholicism, Eastern Orthodox, Lutheran and Baptist.
The Communion is organised into a series of provinces and extra-provincial areas. The provinces are subdivided into dioceses, and the dioceses into parishes.
Find out more about the Provinces and dioceses of the Anglican Communion through the online directory here for a full list.
All of the provinces are guided by recommendations from the four Instruments: the Archbishop of Canterbury, the Lambeth Conference, the Primates’ Meeting and the Anglican Consultative Council.
