Africa
The African continent is administered as a region from the OCAC Worldwide church in the same way as OCAC North America and OCAC Europe. National OCAC churches and their constituent dioceses and parishes have identical authority and respect as our other continents ecclesial arrangements - tailored to their situations and circumstances. The African nations have a wide and diverse range of nations and legal differences, and each of our African national representative churches works within their frameworks and contexts. To serve OCAC Africa as she grows, our Patriarch has appointed Regional Bishops, National Bishops, and set up church frameworks in the African regions and nations to serve Our Lord through the worldwide Old Catholic Apostolic Church to lead the work in that most wonderful Christian continent: Africa.
