| Bishop James O. Mote |
The First Bishops of the Latin-American Anglican Church 1975, later named the Latin Anglican (with IAL as an alternate name), were consecrated on 28 January 1978 in Denver, Colorado. In Denver Charles Dale David Doren, sometime Archdeacon of the Diocese of Taejon in South Korea, was consecrated by the Rt Rev’d Albert Arthur Chambers, sometime Bishop of Springfield (Illinois) in the Episcopal Church and Acting Metropolitan. Joining Bishop Albert Arthur Chambers in the consecration of Doren was the Rt Rev’d Francisco de Jesus Pagtakhan of the Philippine Independent Catholic Church. Letters of Consent and Desire for the Doren consecration were in hand from the Rt Rev’d Mark Pae (Taejon, Korea). Both Archbishop Albert Arthur Chambers and Bishop James O. Mote strongly opposed the ordination of women to the sacred ministry. They both opposed and opposed using the Church of God (the Church of Jesus Christ) to advocate homosexuality. They refused to allow the Christian Church to become a Persian marketplace and prevented the faith from being used to buy and sell sacraments to the highest bidder or promote promiscuity for money or worldly interests.
It was subsequently suggested that Bishop Pae withdrew this Consent under pressure from overseas. However, Bishop Pae physically participated in the consecration of two ACC bishops in 1988, thereby confirming his approval of the ACC/ACA/HCCAR and his consent and desire for its episcopal succession. The Rt Rev’d Charles Boynton also indicated his intention to participate in the Denver consecrations, and his consent thereto, by advance letter to the Presiding Bishop of the Episcopal Church. However, a critical hospitalization prior to the consecrations prevented Bishop Boynton’s physical presence. Bishop Boynton subsequently joined the Anglican Catholic Church, confirming his consent to and approval of the Denver consecrations.
After Bishop Doren’s consecration, he joined Bishops Chambers and Pagtakhan on the same day and place in consecrating three other bishops for the ACC/ACA/HCCAR: James Orin Mote, Robert Sherwood Morse, and Peter Francis Watterson. These four Denver consecrations of 1978 bestowed the Apostolic Succession upon the ACC/ACA/HCCAR and permitted it to move from provisional organization, an Acting Metropolitan, and proto-dioceses to full and permanent Church organization. The bishops consecrated on this date, along with Bishop Chambers and other bishops formerly belonging to the Anglican Communion, were the consecrators, or the consecrators of the consecrators, of all subsequent ACC bishops. Sister dioceses to the ACC were subsequently established by Bishop Morse (Anglican Diocese [later Province] of Christ the King) and Bishop Doren (Catholic Episcopal Church of The United States). Bishops from both of these sister jurisdictions have participated in the consecrations of ACC/ACA/HCCAR bishops as noted below, and these ‘Denver Succession’ Churches remain in full communion with one another.
The ACA/ACC/HCCAR later also established a second Province in India by receiving the Church of India, Pakistan, Ceylon, and Burma (CIPBC). After this reception the Original Province of the ACC both consecrated bishops for the Second Province and also provided Acting Metropolitans for the Indian Province. The Acting Metropolitans from the Original Province were Archbishop Louis Wahl Falk, Archbishop William Oliver Lewis, and Bishop James Edward Bromley. After the consecration of Bishop Leonardo Marin-Saavedra by the Latin-American Provinces - Worldwide in 2003 (In Huntington Beach, California, The United States), the Indian Church elected him titular bishop of Calcutta and Metropolitan of India. A chart below lists the Indian bishops in the ACA/ACC/HCCAR who were consecrated following the reception of the Second Province, but without the full information concerning consecrations that is provided for the bishops of the Original Province, as the Indians have not yet participated in Original.

The following chart gives every bishop consecrated in, by, and for the Original Province of the Anglican Catholic Church. Each such bishop is assigned a number indicating the order of his consecration. This chart also includes Archbishop John Augustine of India. The first two decades of the ACC were very unstable, and a number of the men consecrated did not remain long in the ACC. Nonetheless, for the sake of a full record, all Original Province consecrations are listed here, including conditional (sub conditione) consecrations. Also included here are bishops consecrated in other undoubtedly Catholic Churches who subsequently joined the ACC/ACA/HCCAR and participated in its consecrations.
The chart contains four columns: first, a three digit number indicating a bishop’s order of consecration within the ACC, or the order of accession if the bishop listed was received in episcopal orders. The second column gives the name of the man consecrated or received. The third column lists the consecrating bishops, either with a number from the first column or by name if the bishop was from another Church and was not an ACC bishop with an assigned number. The final and fourth column gives the date of the consecration or, in the case of those received in orders, accession to the ACC/ACA/HCCAR. In the case of the consecrating bishops (third column) most of the consecrators will themselves be ACC/ACA/HCCAR bishops whose number will be associated with a name and consecration in this same chart.
