Anglican Church of Bermuda (Extra-Provincial Diocese of the Church of England)

St Peter’s Church, Their Majesties Chappell, St. George’s, Bermuda
Visit only
Year of visit: 2023

The oldest surviving Anglican church in continuous use outside the British isles (dating to 1612). The church has been rebuilt several times due to storms over the years and the layout is odd (i.e. the pulpit has a central location), which suggests the protestant influences of the time. The framework of now cherished Bermudan cedar is visible and the oldest parts of the church date to 1620. In 2012, for the 400th Anniversary of the church, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, as a gift in her Diamond Jubilee year, granted St Peter’s Church the Royal designation “Their Majesties Chappell”, a designation first used for this church in the 1690s during the reign of King William III and Queen Mary II. One of things that connected me to this church was that the baptismal font and cathedra (bishop’s chair) located there was made for the visit of Reverend John Inglis, Bishop of Nova Scotia, Bermuda, and Newfoundland, in 1826. As a Haligonian, I am familiar with the name John Inglis and his influence on the Anglican Church in Nova Scotia.

Church of the Province of West Indies

Diocese of Jamaica and the Cayman Islands:

St. John’s Church, Ocho Rios, Jamaica
BCP (CPWI) Sung Communion
Year of visit: 2023

The Anglican church located in Ocho Rios, Jamaica. I was able to attend a Sunday communion service. It was at 8am, which was early for a sung communion, but from what I learned from my travels, in tropical/warm areas, they have earlier worship times to mitigate the heat. They used the BCP for the Church of the Province of the West Indies, which was very similar to the Book of Common Worship (multiple rites and in modern English). Communion was in one kind, and the priest lit and extinguished the candles during the service.

Church in the Province of West Africa

Internal Province of Ghana

Diocese of Accra:

I visited Accra, Ghana in 2023, but due to circumstances, I was unable to physically make my way to any of the local Anglican churches, but the Holy Trinity Cathedral was on my list.
