Mike,
Done.
Thanks,
TECAD
Hey, TECAD, there are also congregations just plain shutting down, even apart from realignment. Over at the Diocese of South Dakota website, you can see that churches in Veblen and Wounded Knee are now listed as "closed."
http://www.diocesesd.org/WHO_WE_ARE/DIRECTORY/church_directory.htm
TLF+,
Thanks so much for your interest. As this list is coming under control, I'm ready to start up TEC closures.
TECAD
There are other splits in Tallahassee, FL. St. Francis split, but I don't know the name of the new church. Advent split off to Holy Cross. Holy Spirit closed and is now Holy Spirit Anglican. In Georgia, one of the Thomasville Churches also left.
Diocese of Chicago
St. Marks in Glen Ellyn split to form All Souls in Wheaton in 2003/2004 time frame. Their affiliation is AMIA. St. Marks' membership went from 1400-600 in a year.
I noticed that you had a couple of churches listed that left prior to 2003, so these two split in 2000.
Central Gulf Coast of Florida:
St. Andrew's by the Sea in Destin Florida their membership numbers went from approx. 900 to 100.
Colorado
Grace Church in Buena Vista split to form Anglican Church of the Savior. They went from approx.200 to 30 members
Thanks for the information Anonymous.
I don't see the two that you mentioned in your comment listed, so I'm wondering which two are listed that left before 2003.
If you can leave me another comment or send me an email please I would appreciate it. I'm trying to get an accurate count, and going over each one as I get the time.
Thanks,
TECAD
I am doing research on the churches that have split/left. I got to about 85 when I stumbled onto your site and I passed your site on at StandFirm. Great idea!
These are the ones that I found have left/split/closed: in 1977, Diocese of Los Angeles, Saint Mary of the Angles; in 1997, Diocese of Colorado, Saint Mark in Denver.
There was a lot action that happened in Colorado with growth of African affiliation churches -14of them. This was reported on the Episcope July 30,2007. I don't know if they had any effect on TEC churches but I am going to look into that. Also, I am beginning to think when a church closes, TEC just takes their data history out of their numbers. I am still working on Colorado. Any updates I have, I will pass them onto you.

Diocese of Colorado:
I can't seem to find any information on:
Saint Nicholas and Christ King
Diocese of Conneticut
St. John's Episcopal Church in Bristol. Interesting story. Does not report an actual split but ... the rector was deposed Dr. Mark Hansen and the data shows that something happened. In 2004 there were approx 520 members, in 2006 that went down to approx 200. They may have been cleaning up their books put plate and pledge money also dropped significantly. $160,000 in 2004 to $90,000 in
2006.
Dio of Tennessee
All Saints, Smyrna split 12/2006 to form St. Patrick's Anglican Church
affiliation: CANA
As of the beginning of August, All Souls', Wheaton, Illinois is now affiliated with the Southern Cone through the Bishop of Bolivia.
Correction re:
Christ Church, Watertown, Connecticut (1/08)
Original diocese: Connecticut
Now affiliated with: Uganda
Hard to describe. Entire congregation, vestry, and rector decided to leave Christ Church rather than try to "vote it out". Bp put priest in charge, they still have some services with a few remnants, so technically this would be a "split", although a near-unanimous one; Christ Church is still in TEC. Those who left formed New Hope Anglican, under Kenya (not Uganda.)
You may want to check on Durham, NC's St Joseph's Episcopal Church, whose rector was forced out a few years ago and started a local Anglican Church in America parish (TAC). I'm not sure if it's still there, but it seems that a large chunk of the parish left with him.
Check out in the Diocese of Atlanta:
St. Judes, Marietta - in 2004 formed new Anglican Church
St. Albans, Monroe - formed Holy Cross Anglican
