Anglican Communion

[Flag of the Anglican Communion] image by Rob Raeside, 17 March 2013

The Anglican Communion is the peak body of various Anglican and Episcopal churches around the world. The Communion has a flag, which is ultramarine blue, with a golden compass ('compass rose') bearing at its centre, a white shield with red borders carrying a red St. George's cross surrounded by a Greek motto meaning 'The Truth Shall Make You Free', topped by a golden mitre. The 'compass rose' can be found in the official website of the Compass Rose Society.

Variant Flag

[Flag of the Anglican Communion] image by Eugene Ipavec, 14 July 2006

It should be noted that the text [and image] in the section above says the shield in the center of the compass rose is white, with a red cross and red borders, a photo, formerly posted on the official Anglican Communion website, clearly shows it as yellow, or gold, with a blue cross and border.

Scottish Episcopal Church heraldry

There does not seem to be a general flag for the Scottish Episcopal Church, the Scottish branch of the Anglican Communion. It should be noted that most of the seven individual dioceses of the church have their own arms; a list of these dioceses can be found at http://www.scotland.anglican.org/dioc_choice.html.
However, there seems also to be a general church logo; this can be found at http://www.users.zetnet.co.uk/u04jag/episc/seclogo.jpg. Furthermore, the central image of this logo seems to have been adopted by the Scottish branch of Forward in Faith. This image can be found at http://www.angelforce.co.uk/fif/images/ev-truth.jpg.
