Catholic societies of the Church of England
The Catholic societies of the Church of England are associations within the Church of England which follow in the tradition of Anglo-Catholicism. Although many, especially the older ones, make specific reference to the Church of England in their foundation documents, the vast majority today extend their membership and influence to all member churches of the wider Anglican Communion,〔See, for example, the (reference ) of CBS to international membership.〕 and often also to those non-Anglican churches that are in full communion with the See of Canterbury (for example, through the Porvoo Communion).
==Origins==
The various societies were founded for many different reasons. Some have specific focuses, such as an emphasis on Mariology, or on liturgical questions (including the Blessed Sacrament), supporting vocations amongst those who share anglo-catholic ideology, promoting study, encouraging devotion, or promoting pilgrimage to different sacred sites (especially those associated with Our Lady of Walsingham).
In the nineteenth century, many of the older societies had a role in supporting both clergy and laity who found their anglo-catholic practices or beliefs challenged through the civil courts by protestant organisations, as part of the then current disagreement concerning ritualism in the Church of England. Those prosecuted ranged from relatively unknown parochial clergy (such as Fr Arthur Tooth) to prominent leading churchmen of the day (such as Bishop Edward King). The Church Union is an example of a society founded to provide legal and moral support to those anglo-catholics persecuted for their beliefs. Today these organisations have assumed different objectives.
