List of bishops of the Anglican Church in North America
This list consists of the bishops in the Anglican Church in North America. The Global Anglican Future Conference of 2008 called the Anglican Church in North America into being. After the Church was organized and constituted in 2009, The GAFCON Primates Council recognized the Anglican Church in North America as a Province of the Anglican Communion and invited Archbishop Robert Duncan to join the Primates Council. The leadership of the Anglican Global South has dealt with the reality of the Anglican Church in North America similarly, and the Anglican Church in North America is invited as participants in their meetings.
The Anglican Church in North America has not been recognized as an Anglican Province by the Anglican Communion Office or officially by the Archbishop of Canterbury, though relations are cordial.
