HOUSTON — In a majestic Mass at Houston’s Co-Cathedral of the Sacred Heart on Tuesday evening, history was made for the Anglican ordinariates established by Pope Benedict XVI: Their first bishop was ordained. “In a nutshell, it means we’re here to stay,” summarised Msgr Harry Entwistle, the Ordinary of Australia’s Ordinariate, which is under the patroness of Our Lady of the Southern Cross. The new bishop, Stephen Joseph Lopes, 40, a native of California, was in fact instrumental in the creation of the Ordinariate that he now leads — the Personal Ordinariate of the Chair of St Peter. The Ordinariates were established as the Vatican’s pastoral response to repeated and persistent inquiries made by Anglican individuals and groups who desired full communion with the Catholic Church, in a history that goes back to at least Pope Pius XII. In November 2009, in response to these inquiries from Anglican groups worldwide, Pope Benedict XVI issued an apostolic constitution, Anglicanorum Coetibus. This document authorised the creation of “Ordinariates” — communities that would be fully Catholic yet retain elements of Anglican heritage and liturgical practice. So far, there are three Ordinariates globally: The first was established in the United Kingdom (the Personal Ordinariate of Our Lady of Walsingham) in 2011. The following year, an Ordinariate was established here in the United States, with jurisdiction also including Canada, and another in Australia. Bishop Lopes was working in the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith (CDF) as this process unfolded, having been named an official of that congregation in 2005. For seven of his 10-plus years at the Vatican, he served as Secretary to the Cardinal Prefect, and he was in effect the Coordinator for the three Ordinariates. Hence, he knows well his flock and their unique home in the Church. He explained at the end of his Ordination Mass that his episcopal motto — Magna Opera Domini (“Great are the works of the Lord”) — flows from this intimate knowledge of the ordinariate. Addressing the priests gathered for his ordination — just for the US-Canada Ordinariate, there are 62 of them, along with six deacons, four candidates for the priesthood or diaconate and one seminarian, in service to 42 parishes and communities — he noted, “I have met each one of you.” [Continued next page] Photo, Top: Bishop Steven Lopes is the first bishop of the Personal Ordinariate of the Chair of St Peter Courtesy Facebook/Personal Ordinariate of the Chair of St Peter. 2 3 Ordinariates rejoice as Bishop Steven Lopes is ordained in Houston as the shepherd of the Personal Ordinariate of the Chair of St. Peter” [Continued from previous page] ‘Stories of Faith and Courage’ Reminiscing about a clergy assembly held several years ago in Florida, he explained that the event was one of the first occasions that he had to put faces to the names and autobiographies that he had read and studied at the CDF. “Yours were stories of faith and of courage, and of a passion and zeal for the truth and the search of the truth in sacred Scripture,” Bishop Lopes told the priests. “And they were also often enough stories of sacrifice, suffering and the anguish of leaving what was familiar and comfortable in order to embark on an unknown and sometimes lonely path toward the fullness of Catholic communion.” Seeing the faces of these priests and knowing their stories, he said as he named some of them by name, “in that moment, beholding, if you will, before me, the great work of communion manifest in that chapel, my heart was moved to only one thought: We did not do this. God did this. This is the work of the Lord, and great are the works of the Lord!” For his priests as well, Bishop Lopes’ long involvement with the Ordinariates is a source of consolation and hope. “We all know him very well. He knows each one of us priests very well,” explained Father John Vidal, Pastor of St. Anselm Catholic Community in Corpus Christi, Texas. “It’s like a brother priest is being ordained. He’s not coming from the Anglican Communion, but he knows it just as much as we do, if not better, which is really exciting.” Father Vidal remarked that Bishop Lopes is, in fact, “kind of the one who defined who we were.” “I’m just thrilled,” he said. “For him, but even more for us.” Proper Catholics The Ordinariates are still in their infant stage (what’s five years in the history of the Church?), so much of the work before Bishop Lopes is furthering their establishment. Many Catholics are still unaware that the Ordinariates even exist. Msgr Keith Newton, the Ordinary of the UK Ordinariate, in a presentation prior to the Ordination Mass, joked that he still gets Catholics asking him, “Why don’t you become a proper Catholic?” But the ordination of a Bishop will undoubtedly help to further awareness of the Ordinariates and their mission. “With their own bishop,” said Msgr Entwistle, “we have become a particular Church. This is a statement of confidence from the Holy Father.” The Australian Ordinary added that the Ordinariates’ mission is for the entire Church. “We have a spirituality and a distinctiveness that will enrich the whole of the Catholic Church,” he said. “So we are not a ship passing in the night. The influence of that English spiritual, theological and pastoral tradition will in fact hopefully enrich the whole Church.” Cardinal Daniel DiNardo, Archbishop of Galveston-Houston and thus the host for Tuesday’s celebrations, echoed those thoughts, noting the distinctiveness of the Ordinariate now having a bishop. He said the ordination underlined “a sense of the unity of the Church” and “a true sense of unity with Peter, too.” Said Cardinal DiNardo, “I think it’s great.” [Photo Top: from EWTN Per Ordinariate expats: Bishop Lopes seated in the Cathedra after his Ordination] [Register correspondent Kathleen Naab writes from Houston, where she covers news of the Church] Read more: http://www.ncregister.com/daily-news/first-anglican-ordinariate-bishop-ordained-it-means-were-here- to-stay/#ixzz3zEWYReUx 4. 4 THE THREE ORDINARIES The three Ordinaries: Left to Right: Monsignor Keith Newton: the Ordinariate of Our Lady of Walsingham; Bishop Steven Lopes: the Ordinariate of the Chair of St Peter; Monsignor Harry Entwistle: the Ordinariate of Our Lady of the Southern Cross, standing in the Cathedral Basilica of St Mary, Galveston, Texas.

The Vatican and the Moscow Patriarchate said in a release that the meeting “will be the first in history and will mark an important stage in relations between the two Churches.” Beyond an encounter between two Christian leaders, the meeting also signals a significant and historic move toward wider Christian unity between the long-separated Eastern and Western Churches. It will come only months before the expected opening in June of the first Synod meeting of the various Orthodox Churches in more than a thousand years, which has been threatened by differences of opinion between the Russian and other Orthodox leaders. Fr Lombardi told reporters at the Vatican that Pope Francis and Patriarch Kirill are expected to meet for about two hours on Friday, and that both leaders would make short public remarks during the encounter. They also plan to sign some sort of joint declaration, said Fr Lombardi. The spokesman said the meeting has “extraordinary importance,” and that Vatican officials had been working to organise the event for about two years.

FROM OUR ORDINARY: Monsignor Harry Entwistle. A CAUTIONARY TALE There was once a mountain that belonged to the Church. It was called Mount Docprac because it reminded members of the Catholic Church that the unity between what the Church believed (doctrine) and how that doctrine was lived (practiced) should be as strong as the mountain itself. Over the centuries, Catholics climbed the mountain, doing their best to live faithfully to the teachings of Jesus who gave the mountain to the Church. A few struggled hard and despite many setbacks, they persevered and reached the summit. Others did their best and made some progress and when they failed they started again. The guardians of the mountain, the Pope and the bishops had to be expert climbers because they had to show the way to each new generation of Catholics and find different paths to enable them to succeed. Above all, they had to encourage perseverance, especially in difficult weather conditions. Climbing this mountain was never easy, and when some Catholics lost their tenacity they became frustrated with it. They were influenced by the views of Protestant Christians who no longer had their own mountain because they preferred to live what they thought was an easier life on the flat earth with those who chose for themselves what to believe and how to behave.

  • “Anglican Use of the Roman Rite”? the Unity of the Liturgy in the Diversity of Its Rites and Forms Hans-Jürgen Feulner
    Antiphon 17.1 (2013): 31-72 “Anglican Use of the Roman Rite”? The Unity of the Liturgy in the Diversity of Its Rites and Forms Hans-Jürgen Feulner The internationally known German liturgist Balthasar Fischer († 2001) was rather far-sighted and somewhat euphoric, when, already in 1981, in connection with article 4 of the Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy, Sacrosanctum Concilium, he mentioned the ecumenical dimension of the liturgy: Nowhere does reunification any longer mean—and also not in the West—the adoption of the Roman liturgy and of specifically Catholic piety. Today one can very well imagine how the magnificent liturgy celebrated by our Anglican brothers, with some minute changes, could become a ritus legitime agnitus [lawfully acknowledged rite]; an English liturgical family among the liturgical families of the Catholic Church. With all the spiritual riches that have been amassed here in 400 years, she would join her wagon to the train of Catholic liturgies.1 On June 15, 2012, a decree of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith (CDF) created the Personal Ordinariate of Our Lady of the Southern Cross2—the third Personal Ordinariate to date. This 1 Balthasar Fischer, “Liturgie oder Liturgien?”, in Trierer Theologische Zeitschrift 90 (1981) 265–275, here 273–274 (translation from German; emphasis added and my explanation of the Latin expression).

Neville Rorhlach from the Ordinariate parish of St Thomas à Becket in Brisbane will be ordained by Bishop Brian Finnigan to be an icon of Christ the Servant. The three orders of clerical ministry in the Church are those of bishops, priests and deacons. All bishops and priests are deacons and that is why, especially at ordinations, bishops wear the dal- matic of the deacon as well as the chasuble of the priest. Most deacons go on to be ordained as priests, but there are an increasing number of men who are called to minister permanently as deacons. As such they are ordained to be servants, for that is what the name deacon means, of God’s people in communion with their bishop (or Ordinary) and his priests. All ordained ministers are called to serve through Word, and Sacraments and acts of Charity, but they exercise this ser- vice in different ways. As a minister of the Word, a deacon reads the Gospel, preaches and teaches the faith.

    THE CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY OF AMERICA The Provenance and Purpose of Personal Ordinariates Erected under the Auspices of the Apostolic Constitution Anglicanorum Cœtibus A DISSERTATION SubmiFed to the Faculty of the School of Canon Law Of The Catholic University of America In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree Doctorate in Canon Law © Copyright All Rights Reserved By James Daniel Bradley Washington, D.C. 2017 The Provenance and Purpose of Personal Ordinariates Erected under the Auspices of the Apostolic Constitution Anglicanorum Cœtibus James Daniel Bradley, J.C.D. Director: Kurt Martens, J.C.D. The apostolic constitution Anglicanorum Cœtibus is a response to petitions from groups of Anglicans to be received into communion with the Holy See in a corporate manner. This dissertation examines the origin of such petitions, the development of the principles guiding the response, and an analysis of the legislation. Chapter One traces the origins of corporate reunion from Newman to the Second Vatican Ecumenical Council, in particular the Association for Promoting the Unity of Christendom and the Malines Conversations. Chapter Two discusses the Second Vatican Ecumenical Council with respect to ecumenism and Anglicanism. It examines the establishment of relations between Anglicans and the Holy See, the Anglican-Roman Catholic International Commission (ARCIC), and proposals for the corporate reunion of Anglicans in the Diocese of Amritsar, the United States, the Diocese of Matabeleland, and the United Kingdom. Chapter Three considers the overtures made by groups of Anglicans from 2005 to 2009. This includes the Anglican Church in North America (ACNA), Church of England bishops, and the Traditional Anglican Communion.

  • Pope Appoints New Head of Personal Ordinariate in Australia
    AUSTRALIAN CATHOLIC BISHOPS CONFERENCE Pope appoints new head of Personal Ordinariate in Australia Media Release March 26, 2019 Pope Francis has this evening appointed Canadian priest Fr Carl Reid the second Ordinary of the Personal Ordinariate of Our Lady of the Southern Cross – a role he will take up in August. Pope Francis has also accepted the resignation of Msgr Harry Entwistle, who has served as leader of the Personal Ordinariate of Our Lady of the Southern Cross since it was established in 2012. The Personal Ordinariates, of which Our Lady of the Southern Cross was the third in the world, were established to provide a way for groups of Anglicans to be received into full communion with the Catholic Church – as Catholics – while retaining distinctive elements of their theological, spiritual and liturgical patrimony. Fr Reid grew up in the Anglican Church of Canada before going on to serve as a deacon, minister and suffragan bishop in the Anglican Catholic Church in Canada. He was later received into full communion with the Catholic Church and was ordained a Catholic priest in January 2013. He is currently dean of all Canadian parishes of the Personal Ordinariate of the Chair of St Peter, which also covers the United States. Australian Catholic Bishops Conference president Archbishop Mark Coleridge said Fr Reid’s experience of leadership in the Anglican Catholic Church in Canada and the Ordinariate in North America will be a great asset to the Ordinariate in Australia as it continues to grow. “The Personal Ordinariate is a blessing to the whole Church in Australia and we look forward to welcoming Fr Carl later this year, including as a member of the Bishops Conference,” Archbishop Coleridge said.

    Newsletter The Personal Ordinariate of Our Lady of the Southern Cross Vol 1 No 3 9 April 2020 Holy Week The Ordinary’s Message It is Tuesday in Holy Week as I begin to compose my thoughts on this most holy time of year. I always find this week to be such a roller coaster of emotions, as one necessarily must compose homilies days ahead, which means therefore looking through the Thursday Inside This Issue betrayal and agony in the Garden, through the scourging to the Page 2 Crucifixion, through the veil of despair that fell upon Jesus’ closest A Good Friday Homily from the followers – to Easter and its unique and unprecedented joys. Ordinary Emeritus Page 3 Early this morning, I glanced at some on-line news, and once again 10 Spiritual Counsels in a Time began to wonder at the draconian restrictions under which we are of Coronavirus living. Yesterday, having been a lovely and warm day in southern Page 5 Queensland, thousands of people “hit the beach” on the Gold Coast. Saint Who? On the one hand I immediately began to ask, “What were they Page 6 thinking?” After all, the beach may not be a cruise ship, those St John Paul II on Christ’s floating pitre dishes of contagions, but a hot, sunny beach where Suffering social distancing has been capriciously put aside carries an even greater capacity for subsequent spread of the virus as anonymous beach-goers return to their homes and communities, blissfully unaware that they may have become carriers. But then, I thought more about the current restrictions, and how very inconsistent they are: grocery shopping, take-away foods – permitted, even though there is clearly much mutual handling of goods going on; whereas, carefully observed social distancing church services – forbidden.

Almost everyone who is a member of the Australian Ordinariate realises that one of the challenges we face is that of explaining who and what we are to others, and equally importantly, what we are not. During the Clergy Residential Conference in 2014, it was agreed that around the feast of Our Lady of the Southern Cross, each Or- dinariate community would invite friends, fellow Catholics, sup- porters and other interested people to an event during which they could meet us, but also experience a little of our worship and life. WHAT SORT OF EVENT? This will very much depend on the community, the facilities available, and above all, the amount of effort the members of the community are prepared to put into the occasion. As Ordinary, I hope to make a short video presentation that may be used as part of the celebrations. The occasion could include short presentations by one or two of the laity about their journey into the Ordinariate and their experience of being members of it.
