Im sorry - I should have been more careful about how I gave the actual "name" of the ACC. I threw in Tridentine as a way of indicating that our particular Anglican branch harkens back to "original" liturgy. The actual title is : The Original Province of the Anglican Catholic Church. There is more about it at the website. www.anglicancatholic.org

We will be electing a new Metropolitan this October and the diocese I am in has recently (within the last year) brought in a new bishop, who has in turn re-established a Deanery in our diocese.

"...our particular Anglican branch harkens back to 'original' liturgy."
FYI, that would be the Divine Liturgy of St. James the Brother of the Lord. It bears very little resemblance, if any, to the Tridentine Mass commonly so-called.
I don't happen to be in this jurisdiction, but the British Orthodox Church publishes a quarterly, The Glastonbury Review. In that publication, accessible on line ( http://www.britishorthodox.org/whatlike.php ), the Liturgy of St. James is described at some length. It is also mentioned in the canons of the Council in Trullo. As I understand from once having read the constitution and canons of the ACC, the ACC (unlike other denominations in the West), recognizes the authority of the Council in Trullo. Is that still true?
