[Magdalen] Copes and Mitres Galore.

[Ann Markle]

To be very clear: in both the Diocese of Fort Worth and the Diocese of
South Carolina, there is only one ordinary who is in communion with
Canterbury. The Anglicans in the US are not in the Anglican Communion. I
know it can be confusing because of the name they chose, but the Archbishop
of Canterbury doesn’t invite them to Lambeth.
