{{Anglican realignment}}
The church had its origin in a 2005 split in which the Diocese of Recife, led by [[Robinson Cavalcanti]], left the [[Anglican Episcopal Church of Brazil]], because it had rejected the official Anglican stance on [[Homosexuality and the Anglican Communion|homosexuality]], expressed at the Lambeth 1.10 Resolution in 1998.

The church had its origin in a 2005 split in which the Diocese of Recife, led by Robinson Cavalcanti, left the Anglican Episcopal Church of Brazil, because it had rejected the official Anglican stance on homosexuality, expressed at the Lambeth 1.10 Resolution in 1998.

The Diocese of Recife organized in the Anglican Church-Diocese of Recife and became associated to the Global South, as an extraprovincial diocese, and the Global Anglican Future Conference. At the same time they started church planting outside their territory, aiming to start a new conservative Anglican province in Brazil.

On 12 May 2018 the Anglican Church in Brazil was constituted as a province, with three dioceses, 54 communities, and Miguel Uchôa as the first Archbishop and Primate.[2] It is not recognised as a member of the Anglican Communion,[3] but has been described as the "41st province in the Anglican Communion" by the conservative grouping Global Anglican Future Conference (GAFCON).[4]

Archbishop Peter Jensen argues that the division was "not over a matter of church politics or personal ambition" but was "a matter of the fundamentals of the faith, of what makes a true church, of the authority of God's word."[5]

It is in full communion with all the Global South (Anglican) and the Global Anglican Future Conference provinces, including those who are not members of the Anglican Communion, such as the Anglican Church in North America. The province is also a member of the Rede Inspire (Inspire Net), an association of around 400 churches in Brazil.[10]
