Wikipedia's article on the Anglican Church in North America, community-edited. Reliable for its founding on 22 June 2009 at St. Vincent's Cathedral in Bedford, Texas, when a draft constitution and canons were ratified at the new church's founding conference; for its formation by theological traditionalists who had left the Episcopal Church and the Anglican Church of Canada over the ordination of women and of an openly gay bishop, organised through the Common Cause Partnership formed in 2004; and for its standing today as a member of GAFCON that is not itself a member province of the Anglican Communion, while maintaining full communion with several Anglican Global South primates.
