This seems rather revolutionary.Shem Banburyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12958331886351095289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38893560.post-28830693380714631352009-10-27T00:11:19.522+13:002009-10-27T00:11:19.522+13:00A few Anglicans may crossover but neither the libe...A few Anglicans may crossover but neither the liberal nor the conservatives (read those represented at GAFCON) will have any interestZynichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01049966220170650799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38893560.post-4078071342822781272009-10-26T22:03:49.984+13:002009-10-26T22:03:49.984+13:00Ozy,
From a Vatican press release:
“In this Apos...Ozy,<br /><br />From a Vatican press release:<br /><br /><i>“In this Apostolic Constitution the Holy Father has introduced a canonical structure that provides for such corporate reunion by establishing Personal Ordinariates which will allow former Anglicans to enter full communion with the Catholic Church while preserving elements of the distinctive Anglican spiritual and liturgical patrimony.”</i><br /><br />The details haven't yet been released, but they are coming.<br /><br />I think the Pope has started with the Anglicans because the Traditional Anglican Communion (they have about 400,000 members worldwide) have petitioned for communion with Rome, ie to be under the Roman Catholic umbrella, so to speak.<br /><br />In order for communion with Rome, you need to accept the Roman Catholic Faith in it's entirety. Which is what the TAC have done. Now they just need a formal structure, and a way forward, which they'll be getting.<br /><br />The other way for full communion is of course each person going through the process themselves, which means learning about Catholicism via the RCIA process and then getting the entry Sacraments (Baptism if necessary, Confirmation and Communion, preceded if the person isn't Baptised by Confession).Lucia Mariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10485990994973953860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38893560.post-5752478193262398872009-10-26T20:58:09.657+13:002009-10-26T20:58:09.657+13:00Not being Catholic I would be interested to know w...Not being Catholic I would be interested to know what has the Pope actually allowed?? and what are the implications for the future?<br />Is this open to all anglicans?<br />Is the Pope moving through the alphabet and will Baptists be next? - that would be good for me :)Shem Banburyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12958331886351095289noreply@blogger.com
