Anglicanism
Anglicanism is the Christian tradition that grew from the Church of England after its break with Rome under Henry VIII in the 1530s. It combines Catholic church order with Protestant teaching, expressed in the Book of Common Prayer. Spread by British settlement and missions, it now forms a worldwide communion of churches with tens of millions of members, many of them in Africa.
