WHO WE ARE

Saint Mary the Virgin is a parish of the Holy Catholic Church (Anglican Rite) located in Tampa, Florida under the Bishop Ordinary of the Diocese of the Resurrection.

WE SHALL CONTINUE TO WITNESS TO CHRIST'S GOOD NEWS AND MAINTAIN OUR VISION OF A TRULY CATHOLIC CHURCH, EXPRESSING THAT CATHOLICITY IN AN ANGLICAN WAY. THIS IS NOT THE SAME AS EXPRESSING ANGLICANISM IN A CATHOLIC WAY. WE ARE CATHOLICS OF THE ANGLICAN RITE , NOT CATHOLIC ANGLICANS.

We use traditional Gregorian plainchant which has been used in the Church for many centuries. Our liturgy is the Mass according to an adapted Sarum use. Central to the Sarum Rite is the Gregorian Canon of the Mass, which is contained in the authorized People's Missal of the Anglican Catholic Church. It is fitting that this Canon be celebrated as nearly as possible within its original setting, rather than haphazardly interpolating it into post-reformation liturgies.

ONE SOLITARY LIFE

He was born in a stable in an obscure village.
From there He traveled less than 200 miles.

He never won an election.
He never went to college.
He never owned a home.
He never had a lot of money.

He became a nomadic preacher.
Popular opinion turned against Him.
He was betrayed by a close friend.
His other friends ran away and hid.

He was unjustly condemned to death.
He was crucified on a cross among common thieves,
on a hill overlooking the town dump.
And when He was dead they laid Him in a borrowed grave.

Nineteen centuries have come and gone.
Empires have risen and fallen.
Mighty Armies have marched.
Powerful rulers have reigned.

Yet no one has affected others as much as He.
He is the central figure of the human race.
He is the messiah, the Son of God,
JESUS CHRIST

St. George, Patron of England
