What is happening with "High Church" Episcopalianism in California?
Are there any residual groups? How about "traditional" (Prayer Book
of 1928) Episcopal groups in California? Bishop Robert Morse & St.
Joseph of Arimathea Foundation in the San Francisco Bay area were
associated with this segment of the Episcopal Church. Still extant? Transfigurations: September 2008::

I'm sorry that my answer is not as complete as you would like. In my
defense, you question referred to "Bishop Robert Morse & St. Joseph of
Arimathea Foundation", which is why I focused on them. The list of
churches on the diocese page should help you find a church in your
area; presumably they would also know of other groups.
In my answer, I mistakenly provided the top level URL for the The
Prayer Book Society of the U.S.A. -- which in a way is not so bad,
since it is another resource you can use. In any event, the correct
URL for the specific article I cited is:
http://www.episcopalian.org/pbs1928/Mandate/01-04-03Mandate.pdf
Also, it is worth noting that in the publication from
orthodoxanglican.org which I cited, a "festival of faith" was listed
(on page 19) for St. James Episcopal Cathedral in Fresno. While this
church may not be exactly what you are looking for, its inclusion in
this publication suggests that it may be friendly to this form of
Episcopalianism. Here is its web address:

That's why they went after the Episcopal church in California, and they said so. Justice may require eliminating the tax exemption on churches,

Hello donhugo-ga,
Indeed, this segment of the Episcopal Church is still extant, and this
prayer book still in use.
Robert Sherwood Morse is still the head of the Anglican Province of
Christ the King, whose National Seminary is the Saint Joseph of
Arimathea Anglican Theological College, in Berkeley, California.

You can find an early history and a summary of the changes for the
"Continuing Church", along with the views of Robert S. Morse, in the
following article:

Challenge, March-April 2003, pp 7-12)

Another publication gives a partial listing of churches in California
that use the 1928 Prayer Book:
"Where can I find a church that uses the 1928 Prayer Book?" (Mandate,
January/Feburary 2003, p. 2)

I hope that this information is useful.

I'd appreciate a somewhat more complete answer. Are there any more
groups in Calif.? Nothing in central or southern Calif,? Only
"Archbishop" Robert Morse carries on the traditional church? Are
there any groups in my area (Fresno & Tulare Counties)?
