Bethlehem city in the Lehigh Valley of Pennsylvania will soon be home to a renewed Ordinariate mission starting August 16.

This edition features a homily, parish profile, and the first ministry profile, highlighting one that exemplifies the sort of impact an Ordinariate group can have in its larger community, and a reflection on Hagia Sophia.

In this third issue, we cover Bishop Lopes’ visit to St. Barnabas, the commemoration of St. Bonosa at Our Lady and St. John’s, and more. In the coming weeks, we hope to have more on different initiatives from around the Ordinariate. Happy Sunday!

This is the second issue of the Ordinariate Newsletter, covering good news in the Personal Ordinariate of the Chair of St. Peter. This past week has been important in many communities, whose new pastors started last Sunday. In addition, there are many exciting things happening this weekend: Bp. Lopes is celebrating Pontifical Mass at St. Barnabas, and OLSJ is celebrating the transferred feast of the virgin martyr, St. Bonosa, whose relics are at their parish.

Opinion: If the Personal Ordinariates add an official Betrothal Rite to the Divine Worship liturgy, it would be a powerful aid to marriage preparation that integrates the community in celebration. Here's what it could look like.

As the Ordinariate of the Chair of St. Peter continues to grow, it becomes easy to miss the exciting work occurring at parishes and communities scattered across two countries. This is the first issue of a new weekly newsletter intended to counter that, which will be hosted on the Anglicanorum Coetibus Society website, covering news from around the Ordinariate.
