Former religious orders in the Anglican Communion

The order was originally based in Calcutta, and later expanded to include houses in other parts of northern India and present-day Bangladesh.

The Oxford Mission, an associated body, states on its website "The brotherhood has come to an end, but in India the work continues under an Administrator appointed by the Bishop of Kolkata, and in Bangladesh under the supervision of the Diocese of Dhaka.

"[1] Ewell Monastery was an experimental Cistercian community of monks within the Anglican Church from 1966 to 2004, located at West Malling in Kent.

[3] The Abbey buildings were constructed on the site of a former farm, with an ancient Tithe Barn being developed into the community chapel.

[4] The Cistercian Rule was never popular within Anglicanism, and the community never numbered more than five members, although these were often strengthened by temporary residents at the monastery from amongst the associates of the Order.

In 2008 Sr Elizabeth CE attracted some attention in the local and national press, as the last surviving member of the order; she was then 92, and living in a nursing home, but still engaged in charitable work; she died in 2017, aged 101.

It was founded by Mother Geraldine Mott at the suggestion of Brother Edward Bulstrode, formerly a novice with the Cowley Fathers, to support the establishment of a training centre for village evangelism.

As the years went by, the community was asked to work in many parishes including Pentonville, Poplar, Peckham, Acton and Knightsbridge in London, Burgess Hill in Sussex and St. Aidan’s Birmingham, St. Peter’s Plymouth, Grimsby, Hull and Sunderland where Archbishop Ramsey visited the Sisters from York.

[14] It is now under the jurisdiction of the Anglican Church in Japan, the Nippon Sei Ko Kai, and operates a daughter house on the island of Okinawa.

The community's chapel, residential compound and retreat center located in Mitaka, Tokyo, is a noted design by Japanese architect Shōzō Uchii.

The remaining assets of the Community of the Presentation were invested to form the St Saviour's Medical Charity, for the benefit of the people of Hythe.

[21] It was unusual in aiming to recruit nuns from working-class backgrounds, rather than the upper middle class from which many orders drew their sisters.

The order was founded following a meeting at All Saints, Margaret Street, by members of the Confraternity of the Blessed Sacrament (including the President, Canon Carter of Clewer, and his friend Father Goulden (1834-1896)), to make reparation for any dishonour perceived to have been done to Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament.

In November 1979, the Community accepted the offer of hospitality of the CSJB at Clewer, with the convent at Rushworth Street sold in 1981.

[26] From 1920 the Congregation of the Servants of Christ lived at Britwell Court near Burnham, Buckinghamshire, renaming it The House of Prayer.

The Sisterhood was founded in 1902 under the leadership of Edith Langridge, and followed a slightly adapted version of the Benedictine Rule.

In 1970 a parallel community was founded for sisters of Bangladeshi nationality, named the Christa Sevika Sangha (Handmaids of Christ), and in 1986 this order became fully independent.

[29] The foundress, Sr Susila SE, left the Sisterhood of the Epiphany to become the first Mother Superior CSS, an office she still held until her death on 16 May 2011.

[30] At the same time another sister (Sr Leonore SE) transferred to the Community of St. Francis in order to follow the Franciscan Rule.

By the early 1990s only three SE sisters remained, and they left Bangladesh (where the work in continued by CSS) and returned to England, taking up residence at Ditchingham with the Community of All Hallows.

[33] The order grew large and very active, from its work with Florence Nightingale in the Crimea, to the establishing of a convalescent hospital and a grammar school (St Christopher's).

The last sister was Reverend Mother Cecilia SHT, who joined the community in 1935, having been born in 1914, and offered herself as a postulant at the age of 18.

Before her death, Mother Cecilia established a trust to ensure that the buildings at Ascot Priory continued to be used for the good of the Church of England and of society in general, principally in the care of the elderly, but also through the provision of facilities for retreats and conferences.

The sisters observed a fruitarian diet, and were committed to absolute poverty, owning no property or invested funds.

The archives of the Order of St Elizabeth of Hungary for the period 1904–1990 are held at Lambeth Palace Library in London under reference 3862-93.

The Community of St Wilfrid was founded in Exeter in 1866 by the Reverend John Gilberd Pearse, Rector of All Hallows-on-the-Wall Church in that city.

The community was originally called "The Nursing Sisters of the Church of England", but in 1864, to avoid confusion with other orders, it was renamed "The Home and Sisterhood of St Peter".

This continued to expand, with a chapel being added in 1900, and the home became the mother house of the sisterhood in 1944 when the Kilburn convent was destroyed by bombing.

The sisters also had a subsidiary site in Somerset for tuberculosis patients, and provided nursing care for cholera victims in London and a holiday home for poor children at St Leonards-on-Sea.

A new nursing home opened in 1988 and operated until 2002; a new convent was built in 1990 and closed in 2007, the community being dispersed and the building redeveloped as apartments.
