Saint Alban Church is a parish of the Diocese of the East of the United Anglican Church (UAC), staffed by clergy of the Congregation of the Companions of the Holy Saviour (CSSS). Our Rector is The Rt. Rev'd Barry Eugene Yingling, CSSS, Th.D., the Priest Associate is The Rev'd Thomas Kiefer, Ph.D., our Senior Warden is Robert Godfrey, Jr., the Junior Warden is Roger Coleman, and the Registrar is Susan Coleman, who also serves as our Adult Literacy Ministry Coordinator.
Our liturgical celebrations are unique to the UAC. Our Masses are celebrated according to The English Missal, with Latin Tridentine Masses celebrated on the first Saturday of each month. The English Missal, also known as The Knott Missal, is the traditional "mainstay" of British Anglo-Catholics. The last altar edition, published in the 1950's, has been reprinted by the Canterbury Press and marketed by the Church of England Publishing House (chbookshop.co.uk) . The missal used for the Latin Tridentine Masses is that of 1926 (not 1962!). The American Book of Common Prayer of 1928 provides our doctrinal foundation. We are also in the process of developing The York Missal, which combines the best of The English Missal and the three-year lectionary.
Our outreach ministry revolves around four core areas: liturgical worship, pastoral counseling/spiritual direction, adult Christian study programs, and adult literacy. Bishop Yingling provides counseling and direction to members and non-members alike. The adult study group meets every Thursday evening at 7:15 pm.
We also publish The Word, a newsletter and more. For a free subscription please contact Bishop Yingling (e-mail connection below), or download the current edition on our "News and Resources" page.
S. Alban Church supports the Affirmation of St. Louis and is an associate parish member of Forward in Faith NA, a Common Cause Partner of the Anglican Communion Network, and a member of the Fellowship of Concerned Churchmen. We are listed in the Directory of Traditional Anglican and Episcopal Parishes.
