On Wednesday, November 4, 2009, His Holiness Pope Benedict XVI promulgated the Apostolic Constitution<\/a> \u201cAnglicanorum Coetibus<\/em>, Providing for Personal Ordinariates for Anglicans entering into Full Communion with the Catholic Church.\u201d The Constitution became available to the English-speaking world the following Monday, November 9, 2009, together with a second document<\/a>, \u201cComplimentary Norms for the Apostolic Constitution Anglicanorum Coetibus.<\/em>\u201d\u00a0The appearance of the Constitution itself was noted in passing in the secular press as the real thunder had come some days before with the release of a note from the Congregation of the Doctrine of the Faith announcing that the apostolic constitution was forthcoming. Rumors circulated among Anglicans and Roman Catholics alike: would Anglicanorum Coetibus <\/em>would repeal the claims of Pope Leo XIII\u2019s Apostolicae Curae<\/a><\/em> \u2014 or at least recognize the orders of male Anglican priests in all-male lines of succession? Was there to be the creation of an \u201cAnglican Rite Body\u201d within the structures of the Catholic Church? (The likelihood of the former seemed \u2014 to this observer at least \u2014 about as good as Anglican orders seemed to Pope Leo: \u201cabsolutely null and utterly void.\u201d) Neither rumor proved true, and perhaps for the best: partial or wholesale recognition of Anglican orders or the creation of an Anglican Rite would have created a tremendous amount of confusion and ecumenical difficulty.<\/p>\n

Now that the dust of the rumor mill has settled, and the occasion has dropped out of the headlines, it\u2019s worth taking a look at what actually happened. The principal outcome of Anglicanorum Coetibus<\/em> will be the erection of \u201cPersonal Ordinariates\u201d within national or regional Catholic bishops\u2019 conferences, for the pastoral care of former Anglicans\/Episcopalians who have sought reception into full communion with the Roman Catholic Church. (An Ordinariate is a juridical structure within Roman Catholic Canon Law, and functions as such similar to a diocese.) In 1980, Pope John Paul II established a \u201cPastoral Provision\u201d that allowed for the reception of Episcopal Clergy and Episcopal Congregations into the Roman Catholic Church without requiring them to abandon certain aspects of their Anglican heritage. Priests who were married could be (re-)ordained without prejudice to their married state, though they were debarred from assuming the role of a parish pastor; and a Book of Divine Worship<\/a><\/em> was created, incorporating certain non-negotiable elements of the Roman Catholic liturgy into the framework of the 1979 American Book of Common Prayer. Under the terms of this Pastoral Provision, episcopal oversight was exercised by both the local Roman Catholic bishop and another bishop who served as Ecclesiastical Delegate for the Congregation of the Doctrine of the Faith. The terms of the Pastoral Provision were operative only in the United States, and under them seven parishes were received or created and about seventy-five priests were ordained.<\/p>\n

<\/em><\/p>\n

Anglicanorum Coetibus<\/em> expands the scope of the Pastoral Provision to an international level, while creating more immediate structures for the exercise of episcopal oversight. While the cooperation of local Roman Catholic bishops will still be necessary, the role of the Ecclesiastical Delegate will be eliminated, and an Ordinary (one with the juridical authority of a bishop \u2014 though, the ordinary in fact may be simply a priest) will exercise immediate oversight within each national or regional Bishops\u2019 Conference for those affected by the terms of the Apostolic Constitution. In addition, a Governing Council and a Pastoral Council will be established, to provide for consultation with both clergy and laity (thereby preserving some elements of Anglican synodal polity.)<\/p>\n

The\u00a0underlying intent of Anglicanorum Coetibus<\/em> is to create a unique place within Roman Catholicism where \u201cthe liturgical, spiritual and pastoral traditions of the Anglican Communion\u201d may be maintained \u201cas a precious gift nourishing the faith of the members of the Ordinariate and as a treasure to be shared\u201d (par. III). According to Fr. Gianfranco Ghirlanda, SJ,<\/a> employing the structure of a Personal Ordinariate allows the responsible authorities\u00a0 to be \u201cbetter able to ensure that those faithful are not simply assimilated into the local Dioceses in a way which would lead to the loss of the richness of their Anglican tradition \u2014 which would be an entire [sic<\/em>] impoverishment of the entire Church.\u201d<\/p>\n

Official Roman Catholic recognition of the catholic character of Anglican tradition has increased dramatically in the years since the Second Vatican Council\u2019s 1964 Decree on Ecumenism Unitatis Redintegratio<\/a><\/em> stated that \u201c[a]mong those in which Catholic traditions and institutions in part continue to exist, the Anglican Communion occupies a special place\u201d (n. 13). In no small part the increased recognition since the Council has been due to the work of the Anglican-Roman Catholic International Commission and various bi-lateral ecumenical dialogues between individual Anglican provinces and the Roman church. By seeking to preserve elements of Anglican liturgy and spirituality not only for those being received into the Personal Ordinariate, but also as \u201ca treasure to be shared\u201d for the whole Roman Catholic church, Anglicanorum Coetibus<\/em> takes such recognition to a new level.<\/p>\n

This recognition on the part of Rome (which I in fact welcome) still sadly falls short of how Anglicans understand the catholicity of their tradition. We believe that we share the deposit of the catholic faith (1) as it is revealed in the Old and New Testaments of the Holy Bible; (2) as it was defined by the first ecumenical councils of the undivided church and articulated in the Apostles\u2019, Niceano-Constantinopolitan and Athanasian Creeds; (3) as it is realized in the celebration of the Dominical sacraments of Baptism and the Holy Eucharist; and (4) as it is maintained and handed-on through the three-fold ministries of bishops, priests and deacons. Where we find these things \u2014 so we agreed among ourselves at the 1888 Lambeth Conference<\/a> \u2014 we believe we find the church catholic and its treasury of faith.<\/p>\n

The Roman church disagrees, as is its prerogative, and I cannot begrudge that fact so long as dialogue between the two traditions continues in a spirit of charity and \u201cfaith seeking understanding.\u201d<\/em> Bishop Christopher Epting, Deputy for Ecumenical and Interreligious Relations of The Episcopal Church, remarked<\/a> of Anglicanorum Coetibus<\/em> that it \u201cappears to be a unilateral action on the part of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith which flies in the face of the slow, but steady progress made in the real ecumenical dialogue of over forty years. . . . This is \u2018come home to Rome\u2019 with absolute clarity.\u201d While it’s no secret that Roman Catholicism, although engaging in sincere ecumenical dialogue, still practices an \u201cecumenism of return,\u201d I\u2019m afraid that Bishop Epting sees in the Apostolic Constitution a new ecumenical problem. <\/em>But such does not seem to have been the intent of the Pope in promulgating it. As Rowan Williams, Archbishop of Canterbury, and Vincent Nichols, Roman Catholic Archbishop of Westminster, have stated together<\/a>:<\/p>\n

The Apostolic Constitution is further recognition of the substantial overlap in faith, doctrine and spirituality between the Catholic Church and the Anglican tradition. Without the dialogues of the past forty years, this recognition would not have been possible, nor would hopes for full visible unity have been nurtured. In this sense, this Apostolic Con-stitution is one consequence of ecumenical dialogue between the Catholic Church and the Anglican Communion.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Just as Roman Catholicism on the whole, while recognizing many catholic elements within the Anglican tradition, fails to recognize what seems so clear to those of us within it, so also many of our former coreligionists no longer recognize that catholicity. It is to those \u2014 individuals and groups \u2014 who are no longer able to walk with us, yet still wish to preserve their Anglican heritage, that Anglicanorum Coetibus<\/em> is addressed. In seeking to preserve for them something of the heritage which they have loved, but with which they can no longer maintain communion in good conscience, while also fully incorporating them into the Roman Catholic Church, it responds to a real pastoral need. As Archbishops Williams and Nichols noted together, \u201cThe announcement of this Apostolic Constitution brings to an end a period of uncertainty for such groups who have nurtured hopes of new ways of embracing unity with the Catholic Church.\u201d<\/p>\n

Perhaps most interesting for our readers here<\/strong> will be the liturgical fallout from the Apostolic Constitution. With the publication of the new ICEL translations of the Missale Romanum,<\/em> the prayers at the Preparation of the Altar and Gifts, and Eucharistic Prayers of Rite II in the Book of Divine Worship<\/em> will become obsolete. Further, it seems that the great majority of those whose petitioning for full communion with Rome occasioned the promulgation of Anglicanorum Coetibus<\/em> come from parts of the Anglican Communion that did not use the American Prayer Book, but the 1662 English Book of Common Prayer. It is not clear what liturgy or liturgies will be compiled for those being received into the Personal Ordinariates provided for in the Constitution. Wait and see, I guess.<\/p>\n

On November 21, 2009, Vatican Information Service reported<\/a> of the Archbishop of Canterbury\u2019s audience with the Pope that day:<\/p>\n

In the course of. . . cordial discussions attention turned to the challenges facing all Christian communities at the beginning of this millennium, and to the need to promote forms of collaboration and shared witness in facing these challenges. . . . The discussions also focused on recent events affecting relations between the Catholic Church and the Anglican Communion, reiterating the shared will to continue and to consolidate the ecumenical relationship between Catholics and Anglicans….<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
