| Separated from | Anglican Episcopal Church of Brazil |
The Anglican Church in Brazil (Portuguese: Igreja Anglicana no Brasil) is an evangelical Anglican denomination in Brazil. It had its origin in a 2005 split in which the Diocese of Recife, led by Robinson Cavalcanti, left the Anglican Episcopal Church of Brazil over the issue of homosexuality.
The Diocese of Recife organized in the Anglican Church-Diocese of Recife and became associated to the Global South, as an extra-provincial 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. In 2018 the Anglican Church in Brazil was constituted as a province, with Miguel Uchoa Cavalcanti as the first Archbishop and Primate.[1] It is considered by the Global Anglican Future Conference (GAFCON) to be the 41st province of the Anglican Communion, but it is not recognised as such by the Archbishop of Canterbury.[2]
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."[3]
