I juni måned skal ca 50 tidligere anglikanske prester ordineres (som katolske prester) i England. Dette er personer som i festen/påsken i år ble opptatt i Den katoslke Kirke, sammen med ca 1000 lekfolk. De første ordinasjonene skjedde tidligere i dag, og zenit.org skrev slik om det fredag:
The Personal Ordinariate of Our Lady of Walsingham is preparing for the first in a wave of priestly ordinations that begins Saturday, with seven Anglican priests set to be ordained in the Church.
… Saturday’s ceremony will be the first ordination of former Anglican priests and begin a wave that will continue throughout the month, with more than 50 ordinations expected in this season.
Archbishop Peter Smith will ordain the seven this Saturday in his Cathedral Church in Southwark (London).
