The Communion of Saints

The Communion of Saints
I hope there's room for me.

Welcome all - especially Mancunians.

Hello anybody lost in the blogosphere. Welcome to the ruminations of a politically left of centre, Man United supporting, blues loving, history-fixated, Catholic wanderer. Be warned, I am a bit of a curmudgeon.

Which Traditional Anglican Communion parishes have joined the Personal Ordinariates?

There have been several questions asked about which  former Traditional Anglican Communion Parishes, Missions and groups have joined the Catholic Church through the provisions of the Apostolic Constitution Apostolicorum Coetibus so I have endeavoured to list them in as up to date a fashion as I am able.

I am aware that some named (specifically in Canada) are not yet formal parishes or missions of the Personal Ordinariate of the Chair of St Peter, but they are due to be. Please feel free to point out any mistakes and send any updates and omissions.

USA - formerly the Anglican Church in America (ACA-TAC)

Personal Ordinariate of the Chair of St Peter

Church of the Incarnation, Orlando, Florida (formerly the Cathedral of the Incarnation for the Diocese of the Eastern United States of the Anglican Church in America (ACA-TAC) and then the Pro-Diocese of the Holy Family for those en-route for the Personal Ordinariate of the Chair of St Peter).

Mission of Holy Cross, Ocala, Florida (received with the Church of the Incarnation)

Parish of Christ the King, Towson, Maryland.

Mission Parish of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, Mount Airy, Maryland, subsequently added as a mission attached to Christ the King, Towson.

St Augustine of Canterbury, Oceanside, California (formerly the Church of the Resurrection Mission Parish in Oceanside).

Blessed John Henry Newman Mission Parish, Orange County, California (made up of former members of the ACA-TAC, TEC and others. Their Priest-in-Charge, Father Bartus, was formerly a priest of the ACA-TAC)

St Joseph of Arimathea Anglican Use Society, Indiana, Indianapolis.

St Michael the Archangel Church, Philidelphia, Pennsylvania.

Former Pro-Diocese of the Holy Family..parishes/missions:
Notre Dame du Mt. Carmel..Margate, Florida

Rye de Gloria Mission..Pinecrest, Florida

Our Lady of the Angels..New Smyrna Beach, Florida

St. Luke's Mission...The Villages, Florida

Our Lady of Good Counsel...Jacksonville, North Carolina

St. Edmund of Canterbury...Fredricksburg, Virginia

Holy Trinity, Payson, Arizona.

Canada - Formerly of the Anglican Catholic Church of Canada  (ACCC-TAC) 

Personal Ordinariate of the Chair of St Peter

Sodality of the Annunciation of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Ottowa, Ontario.

Holy Nativity Sodality, Barrhaven, Ontario (a Mission of the Sodality of the Annunciation of the BVM )

St Barnabas Sodality, Spencerville, Ontario (a Mission of the Sodality of the Annunciation of the BVM)

Sodality of the Good Shepherd, Oshawa, Ontario.

Fellowship of Blessed John Henry Newman, Victoria, British Columbia.

Sodality of St Edmund, King and Martyr, Cambridge, Ontario.

The Apostolate of the Holy Cross, Sydney, Nova Scotia

Tyendinaga Mohawk Territory's Christ the King Parish, Ontario

St Michael's, Fredericton, New Brunswick.

I am aware other communities in Canada may have joined but can't get any details at the moment.

Australia - formerly  Anglican Catholic Church in Australia (ACCA-TAC)

Personal Ordinariate of Our Lady of the Southern Cross

St Ninian and St Chad, Maylands, West Australia

Melbourne Ordinariate Group, Victoria (some members formerly from St Mary the Virgin Parish (ACCA-TAC), South Caulfield)


Five ACCA-TAC priests are named as contacts on the website so I assume they will be coming with parish communities (though this could be wrong) but will wait for a formal announcement. Interestingly, Bishop Robarts, initially named as a contact for Tasmania, is no longer listed but it was probably considered 'bad politics' to be on the site whilst still in post in the ACCA.

United Kingdom - formerly The Traditional Anglican Church (TTAC-TAC)

Personal Ordinariate of Our Lady of Walsingham

St Agatha's Church, Landport, Portsmouth, Hampshire

Presteigne Ordinariate Group, Powys, Wales, formerly the TTAC parish community led by Fr Gill.
