Common Prayer
A liturgy shaped by Cranmer's heritage — the cadence of the Book of Common Prayer, daily offices, and reverent celebration of the Holy Eucharist.
About Our Mission
A Parish of the Ordinariate of Saint George
Preserving the historic Anglican patrimony — apostolic, sacramental, and pastoral — on the shores of Lake Erie.
Founded 2022
Middlefield, Ohio
& surrounding communities
The Anglican Mission of Lake Erie was founded in 2022 under the episcopal oversight of The Right Reverend Brent E. Whetstone. Though our gathering is small, our inheritance is vast — we stand within the unbroken stream of apostolic faith handed down through Scripture, the ancient Creeds, and the Sacraments of the Church.
We are a parish of the Ordinariate of Saint George, a fellowship of clergy and faithful committed to safeguarding and renewing the historic Anglican patrimony — its prayer, its preaching, and its pastoral care — for the present age.
Our Ecclesial Home
The Ordinariate of Saint George
An ordinariate is a canonical jurisdiction — much like a diocese, but personal rather than territorial — established to gather faithful around a shared spiritual and liturgical patrimony. Our communion's Ordinariate of Saint George exists to preserve the prayer, the preaching, and the pastoral life that have come down to us through the historic Anglican settlement.
Under the patronage of Saint George — soldier, martyr, and witness to Christ — the Ordinariate gathers parishes and missions committed to one canon of Scripture, the three ancient Creeds, the four undivided Councils, and the sacramental life of the one holy Catholic and Apostolic Church.
