Kaspar on the Ordinariates


Sandro Magister presents an interview with Cardinal Kaspar on the Anglican Ordinariates, revealing among other things Dr Williams telephoning him in the middle of the night. This was published in L'Osservatore a few days ago.

On Thursday Dr Williams flies to Rome for a longstanding meeting and will meet the Holy Father.

Dear Father Blake,

How interesting to learn that the Orthodox responded much as I did. However, the article helps me to understand better the significance of "personal ordinariate".

Without territory, or a leader, and with the rule of celibacy, my initial concern about a rival faction would seem to be exaggerated.
