The World Anglican Episcopal Communion is an international religious communion, comprised of several Provinces, Archdiocese, Diocese and Religious Orders and Societies, and maintain their Anglican and unity through joint fellowship. Our Communion is open to all Who believing Jesus Christ and Obeying His word.
The Our Communion is formed of the a large group of anglicans of all varieties of churchmanship from Anglican Evangelical and Charismatic and Episcopal who share a belief in the historic values of anglican worship and the teaching of the Bible. All of the National Dioceses, Archdioceses and Provinces are autonomous, comprising self-governing churches and families of churches around the world.
In a real sense, we are a "Continuing Church", not a new Church. We continue to believe in everything the Church of England has always believed and taught. That is why we call ourselves a Traditional Church. We hold to the Holy Orders of Bishops, Priests and Deacons, and in accordance with the teaching of the Bible and Church Tradition.
Historically there have been three main"streams" of worship that have been the experience of Christ's Church; the Anglican , the evangelical and the charismatic. Our Communion seeks to discover and to incorporate the best from each of these traditions. We in our Doctrinal Essentials affirming the authority of Holy Scripture (and our emphasis on preaching and teaching the Bible) and professing the historic confessions of faith (Apostle's and Nicene Creeds). We stress the proclamation of the Gospel not only in our preaching but also in our lifestyles, seeking to reach the lost for Christ. Also, our bishops are in Apostolic Succession. In obedience to the command of Jesus Christ, we are committed to mission and evangelism in the power of the Holy Spirit. World Anglican Episcopal Communion is an Christian organization of churches throughout the Worldwide centered in the Anglican tradition but embracing a traditional and conservative theology and practice. Among these practices are:
- The use of the 1928 Book of Common Prayer
- The tradition of an all-male clergy
- the ownership of church buildings.
- Belief in the sanctity of marriage as defined in the Bible
- Belief in the sanctity of human life
- We welcome all churches(denominations , organisations , schools, ministries , theological colleges) , and followers of Christ in the world.
Our worship is liturgical for similar reasons. We believe that worship should be a reverent response to the character of the true and living God, and that it ought therefore to reflect carefully God's revelation of Himself in Scripture. Our worship services therefore are carefully and thoughtfully prepared celebrations of God as revealed in the Bible.
The WAEC is a Christian community that emphasizes the authority of Scripture, reverent, Biblically informed worship, and fellowship that is caring, supportive, and challenging. We believe that the Bible is the inspired word of God, authoritative in matters of faith and morals, and we interpret the Bible in light of the historic teachings of the Church; 'what has always, everywhere, and by all been believed'. In addition to the teaching and study of the Word of God, we place great value on the celebration of the sacraments ordained by Jesus to be both a memorial and a means of grace to His people. All are welcome to attend our services, and we invite all baptized Christians who receive Holy Communion in their own churches to receive the sacrament in our congregations.

Theological Statement
We believe and confess Jesus Christ to be the Way, the Truth, and the Life: no one comes to the Father but by Him.
- We confess the canonical books of the Old and New Testaments to be the inspired Word of God, containing all things necessary for salvation, and to be the final authority and unchangeable standard for Christian faith and life.
- We confess Baptism and the Supper of the Lord to be Sacraments ordained by Christ Himself in the Gospel, and thus to be ministered with unfailing use of His words of institution and of the elements ordained by Him.
- We confess the godly historic Episcopate as an inherent part of the apostolic faith and practice, and therefore as integral to the fullness and unity of the Body of Christ.
- We confess as proved by most certain warrants of Holy Scripture the historic faith of the undivided church as declared in the Catholic Creeds: the Apostles', the Nicene.
- Concerning the seven Councils of the undivided Church, we affirm the teaching of the first four Councils and the Christological clarifications of the fifth, sixth and seventh Councils, in so far as they are agreeable to the Holy Scriptures.
- We receive The Book of Common Prayer as set forth by the Church of England in 1662, together with the Ordinal attached to the same, as a standard for Anglican doctrine and discipline, and, with the Books which preceded it, as the standard for the Anglican tradition of worship.
- We receive the Thirty-Nine Articles of Religion
