Administrative history

The Federation of Catholic Priests was founded in 1917 to foster priestly vocation within the Church of England. Today it continues to seek to encourage mutual support in propagating, maintaining and defending Catholic doctrine and practice within a traditional understanding of priesthood. Members of the Federation accept the Catholic and Apostolic Faith of the Church as Anglicans have received it – a faith expressed in the Scriptures, Creeds, Sacraments and Ministry. They commend that faith to others by teaching and example. They commit themselves to a rule of priestly life.

Scope and content

FCP has a membership of 2,000. Bishop of Elmham (Bishop Clark) gave a talk to the Peterborough Diocesan Association about ARCIC agreed statements. Wish to ask a question: "What do you now more require of us to make possible a reconciliation between our two churches?"
