What is the difference between the Anglican Church and the United Church of Canada and the Presbyterian Church in Canada?
The Anglican chruch is not an official established church. Members of the Church of England are called Anglicans. The Church of England is headed by the King of England while the Roman Catholic Church is headed by a pope. During King Henry's reign he removed the pope and announced himself as the head of a very little reformed church called the Church of England. People who were called Puritans sought to reform the Church of England of its catholic aspects. The Congregational Church grew out from the Purtian Church.
Who and what was a purtian?
I assume you are inquiring about The Puritans. This term was used to describe members of the Church of England, who wished to purify it of all semblances to the Roman Catholic Church, in particular to the lithurgy, vestments, and episcopal hierarchy. A radical minority within the Puritan movement, The Separatists, wanted to remove itself from the English church and worship in its own independent congregation. Those Puritans who did sail to the United States in 1630 mantained they were not separatists but wanted to purify the Church of England by establishing their own "city upon a hill." By the end of the 17th century, puritan political influence had largely disappeared in Massachusetts, though attitudes associated with it remained.
