The Church of England’s breakaway congregation in the Algarve is contemplating joining the Anglican Mission in America [AMiA].

In an announcement posted on its parish website, All Saints Algarve in Almancil, Portugal stated that the executive officer of the AMiA, Canon Ellis Brust would be visiting the congregation June 16-17.

The parish reported that Rwandan Archbishop Emmanuel Kolini “has agreed to send his personal emissary” to the parish “to visit with us and talk to us about All Saints becoming part of the growing family of AMiA churches.”

Comprised of over 100 congregations in the US and Canada, the AMiA was formed in 2000.
