In British Columbia, Former (TAC) Anglicans Welcomed into the Roman Catholic Church

Posted by Kendall Harmon

This evening we are celebrating an especially joyful, even historic, occasion: the reception into full communion with the Catholic Church of 11 members of the Traditional Anglican Communion in Canada.

Their journey to full communion with the Successor of Peter, our Holy Father Benedict XVI, has been a long and sometimes trying one, yet one brimming with hope. I would especially like to express my gratitude to Father Bruce McAllister, who has guided them with such wisdom and concern in their journey.

We give thanks to the Lord for their patience, their perseverance, and above all for their faith.

Read it all.

Does anyone know how many of the TAC are actually making the move to the Ordinariate?  There seem to be many contradictory claims doing the rounds.

There are contradictory claims about how many members the TAC has, so its anybody’s guess how many will convert.
