Bishop Mote Presents a History of St. Mary's Church in Denver, Colorado, 1986
Abstract
Bishop James Mote shares the history of St. Mary's Anglican Catholic Church, which moved to the University Park area of Denver, Colorado in the 1930s. St. Mary's Church withdrew from the Episcopal Church on November 28, 1976 under his direction and joined other parishes in the Diocese of the Holy Trinity, which later became known as the Anglican Catholic Church. Bishop Mote also comments on the expansion of Denver's city limits to the south and to the east since his arrival in 1951, and notes that the University Park neighborhood is now one of the more central locations in the metropolitan area.
