Shawn Tribe reports<\/a> on moves from one of the Anglican \u2018continuing\u2019 churches to establish \u2018sacramental unity\u2019 with Rome.<\/p>\n

I can\u2019t keep up with all this. Traditional Anglicans are already welcome to establish \u2018sacramental unity\u2019 with Rome. It\u2019s called being received into full communion with the Catholic Church a.k.a \u2018becoming a Catholic.\u2019<\/p>\n

In a comment Fr. Newman points out that the head honcho of TAC is himself a former Catholic priest who went Anglican and got married, and that one of the main obstacles in receiving a group en bloc<\/span> is that the marital situation of every individual would have to be examined, and most Anglican groups have abandoned any kind of traditional marriage discipline long ago, so many of their members will be in their second or third marriages.<\/p>\n

However, by \u2018sacramental union\u2019 maybe TAC aren\u2019t looking to come into full communion with the Catholic Church, but want their orders to recognized.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
