“Benedict seemed to just ‘get’ the English tradition …he understood and appreciated the Anglican ‘soul’ or perhaps, more accurately, the historic English religious soul,” says Father David Palmer. https://t.co/apNZjrKG6y

Centenary of the Malines Conversations

This year marks the centenary of the Malines Conversations, which gave rise to the idea of an Anglicanism in communion with Rome, “united, but not absorbed.” This was an explicit concept in the development of the Ordinariates and we give thanks for the way this has been realised. https://t.co/bGYp2y1u9P

Peter Hitchens on the Anglican Ordinariates

@fathereddy I welcome the Ordinariate (especially its use of much of Cranmer's book) as a reconciliation of people who should never have been apart, and have written at length about this in 'The Lamp'. Not much that is worth having will survive the next 100 years, anywhere. https://t.co/HulVUFWNec

And the Status of the Ordinariates in 2020?

Have they been just absorbed into the Latin ecclesial machine?

On 4 November 2009, Pope Benedict XVI promulgated the apostolic constitution Anglicanorum coetibus. Today is our 11th anniversary, so please join me in giving thanks for the gift of the personal ordinariates.

Anglican Catholics and Divine Worship

I was reminded that I needed to add something to the sidebar for the Anglican Ordinariate use...

Anglicans of the Personal Ordinariate is too long, "Anglicans" by itself is confusing. For now I use "Anglican Catholics" until something more appropriate is accepted. How are we to refer to the modern rite of the Anglican Ordinariates as embodied in Divine Worship? One possibility:
On the Ordinariate Use of the Roman Rite vs Anglican Use

There have been grumblings among Anglicans and Anglican Catholics (not "Anglo-Catholics") about the Missal that was promulgated, especially because of OF "Latinizations," and many blame a certain bishop for his involvement in the creation of that Missal. I can understand why, and it was probably a mistake to put Latins with a Latinizing agenda (or with with no deep scholarship in the Anglican tradition?) in such positions of authority (or subsequent positions of authority, but the old insistence on bishops being celibate and all that). Latins who celebrate or attend OF Mass are nonetheless impressed, and such a reaction is understandable if their baseline for comparison is the typical OF Mass celebrated in Anglophone countries.

The Beauty of the Anglican Usage Liturgy (the Ordinariate)
What I learned from celebrating Mass in the Ordinariate Use by Fr Matthew Pittam
New UK Ordinariate Mass with Elements of “Latin Mass”!

But have Anglicans been discouraged from entering into full communion of Rome because they find this Missal, Divine Worship, scandalous to their sense of tradition and patrimony? Hieratic Elizabethan English is not enough.

Discussion and criticism of the liturgical creativity behind the new Missal:
From 2018: The first Romanist 'Anglican Use' liturgy published, and the crisis in the Ordinariate
Ship of Fools

Psallite Sapienter --
The Secret and the Canon and the Dominus Vobiscum
The Ritual Reason Why
The Ordinariate Mass – Why Eucharistic Prayer II?

There are defenders:
Why Divine Worship: The Missal is so Important
In defence of Divine Worship

And what of the proposed Divine Offices for the Anglican Catholics?

Meanwhile... the Latins are still tinkering with the Liturgy of the Hours. And undoubtedly the old guard is still inveighing against the most recent English translation of the Pauline Missal. They probably would not be happy with proposals to replace the 2011 translation with something more hieratic.

My comment: Is this how the Ordinariate of the Chair of St. Peter is being run? Don't use the name of St. Peter to justify ultramontanism/papal maximalism.
