Further information about religious life in the Episcopal Church<\/strong>:<\/p>\nThe Episcopal Church has two branches of the religious life.<\/p>\n
There are the traditional religious orders with members sharing resources, living together in a monastery or branch house, and taking the traditional vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience. They also live under the rule and constitution of their order. There are approximately 18 religious orders in the Episcopal Church. Sadly, these orders are slowing diminishing in numbers and are struggling to gain new members.<\/p>\n
Then there are the dispersed religious communities, also called Christian Communities. Members of the Religious Communities live and work out in the world in a variety of careers, commit themselves for life or a term of years , and vow obedience to the rule and constitution of their Community. They are active in the world and committed to living the Gospel within it. Members keep connected by use of the internet, phones, Skype, and attendance at yearly convocations. Members can be single, married, or partnered. They live a life of prayer, study, and service to the Church (especially ministries to the poor and marginalized). They are in many ways the modern missionaries of the church. They are recognized as Brothers and Sisters of the Church. Sometimes, these orders are referred to as the “New Monasticism movement”.<\/p>\n
There are approximately 13 religious communities in the Episcopal Church. We are the fastest growing movement within the church.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
