Numbers in the Anglican Communion
Hi SeminarianJohn! I made some corrections to the sums in the article about the Anglican Communion. Regarding the church in New Zealand, you reported that, in addition to the 245,301 Anglicans reported in the 2021 New Zealand Census, members from Fiji (6,600), Tonga (1,300), Samoa (340), and the Cook Islands (90) should be added. The combined number is 253,631 people, not 253,931. Corrected. Regarding the Church of England, in 2023, the Bertelsmann Foundation estimated that 43% of the British population (whose total number was 68,490,000 that year) was Christian, and 53% of Christians identified as Anglican. According to this survey, 23% of British people were Anglican, corresponding to 15,752,700 people that year. Subtracting the number of self-identified Anglicans in Scotland, Wales, and Ireland, leaves 15,291,182 in England and not 13,149,830. Corrected.
