The American Catholic, successor to the Appalachian Anglican, exists to aid in creating and cultivating Catholic communities within the Anglican Tradition across North America and beyond. We invite you to gather, partner, and participate in the proclamation of that Faith that has been handed down through the millennia in the Church.
