Ordinariate Faces; Ordinariate Places.

Archbishop J. Augustine Di Noia:

In a lecture at Queen’s College, Canada, in 2010, Cardinal William Levada, former Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, noted:

"Twenty-eight years ago, the great historian of ecumenism, Fr. Yves Congar, wrote that if we take seriously that the Holy Spirit has been working among our fellow Christians, we have to take seriously the ways they express their beliefs. When their particular expression of faith adds harmony to ours, and ours add harmony to theirs, the logical step is to pass from talking longingly about unity to living in unity, a unity whose essence is revealed in harmonious diversity."

Divine Worship and the Personal Ordinariates represent, in many ways, a realized ecumenism. Here, the unity of faith allows for a rich diversity in the expression of that faith, creating a space wherein the cadences of the Coverdale Psalter and the sobriety and disarming frankness of the Prayer Book will continue to resound and call to faith. Article III of Anglicanorum Coetibus had it right: this is indeed a treasure to be shared.

Divine Worship and the Liturgical Vitality of the Church, by Archbishop J. Augustine Di Noia, O.P., Adjunct Secretary of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, Co-Chairman of the Anglicanae Traditiones Interdicasterial Commission.
