Reformed Churchmen

We are Confessional Calvinists and a Prayer Book Church-people. In 2012, we remembered the 350th anniversary of the 1662 Book of Common Prayer; also, we remembered the 450th anniversary of John Jewel's sober, scholarly, and Reformed "An Apology of the Church of England." In 2013, we remembered the publication of the "Heidelberg Catechism" and the influence of Reformed theologians in England, including Heinrich Bullinger's Decades. For 2014: Tyndale's NT translation. For 2015, John Roger, Rowland Taylor and Bishop John Hooper's martyrdom, burned at the stakes. Books of the month.

Conference Costs

In order to offer resources, events, and connections for discipleship and education of clergy and laity,
Mere Anglicanism strives to offer highly cost-efficient events. The off-season in Charleston is significantly less expensive than the summers, and event attendees can take advantage of a few days of warmer winter weather in the Lowcountry as well.

Thanks to our special hotel rates, event participants can spend two nights in Charleston for around $240 dollars. Add to that the cost of food and the event registration fee of $100

We believe that an event registration fee of $100 will keep your total cost of conference as low as possible. The registration fee does not cover all of Mere Anglicanism's costs -- but it's worth it to see laypeople and clergy able to attend.

Individual presentation are available at $25 per session.

and please come!
