To be an Episcopalian... 

is not to embrace a distinct version of Christianity, but a distinct way of being a “Mere Christian,” at the same time evangelical, apostolic, catholic, reformed, and Spirit-filled. We belong to a world-wide Anglican Communion, constituting the third largest Christian body globally.

Anglicanism is a Christian tradition that emerged from the practices, liturgy, and identity of the Church of England following the Protestant Reformation of the 16th century. It is the third-largest Protestant denomination in the world. The Anglican Church has a rich tradition of making disciples around the world and now includes some 85 million members in more than 165 countries.

Also called the Anglican Communion, the Anglican Church is made up of 40 global member Provinces. The provinces are subdivided into dioceses, and the dioceses into parishes. Resurrection South Austin is in affiliation with the Episcopal Diocese of Texas, which is part of the Episcopal Church, a member of the Anglican Communion.

What We Believe

We believe and confess Jesus Christ to be the Way, the Truth, and the Life: no one comes to the Father but by Him.

We believe the Holy Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments to be the revealed Word of God containing all things necessary to salvation.

We worship one God in three Persons, praying to the Father through the Son by the Holy Spirit.

We take part in the Sacraments ordained by Christ himself, through the ministry of the apostolic orders.

We are an integral part of the one Body of Christ composed of Churches which, united under the headship of Jesus, are in the fellowship of the one holy catholic and apostolic Church throughout the ages.

We believe in the apostolic succession of bishops.

We hold the one Faith revealed in Holy Scripture, and defined in the creeds as maintained by the undivided primitive Church in the undisputed Ecumenical Councils.

We pray for the healing of the Church’s sad divisions and for the reunification of the Body of Christ.
