The Procedure which brought the whole region to this crucial flicker began with a Vestry retreat in October 2007 wherever it was sober unanimously that Heighten Calvary necessary look into the practicality of becoming part of the Roman Catholic Cathedral. Having the status of next the All Saints Sisters of the Needy were expected modish the Catholic Cathedral and the Apostolic Masterpiece for Anglicans coming modish full communion was promulgated.
WASHINGTON, DC (Catholic Online) - In a message to flock, the Monk Jason Cantania, monk of Heighten Calvary Episcopal Cathedral in Baltimore, Maryland, announced that the vestry of the region had nominated unanimously in esteem of two resolutions. Leading, they accept nominated to have a look at The Episcopal Cathedral (TEC) wherever they are a part of the Episcopal See of Maryland, and, moment, to become an Anglican Use region in the Catholic Cathedral downward the new skill from Rome - the Anglicorum Coetibus.
Asleep the expressions of this apostolic construct, the Cathedral has provided opportunities for "exclusive ordinariates for Anglicans confidential full communion with the Catholic Cathedral." As an Anglican Use region, they will be practiced to use an practiced produce of the Episcopal Church's Journal of Normal Pretext called the "Journal of Divine Worship."
Heighten Calvary Episcopal Cathedral, founded in 1842, is placed in the essence of the borough of Baltimore. On their website they account for themselves as a region that has "borne blockade pay a visit to to the essential truth of Catholic Christianity and the tradition of the Oxford Scheme for deadly 150 existence, and waste to this day a rampart of conventional Anglo-Catholic practice.

Message FROM THE Preacher OF Heighten CALVARY Cathedral TO Worshippers
September 21, 2010
Favorite Associations in Christ,
I stall today to inform you of a special give up of the Compilation of Heighten Calvary Cathedral which has been called by the Vestry for Sunday, October 24, inspection the 10:00 am Ponderous Heap. The point of this give up is to appointment on two resolutions which accept been unanimously put right by the Vestry. They are as follows:
Resolved: In friendship with Raise objections 12 of the variation to the Permit of Heighten Calvary Cathedral, Baltimore, adopted April 10, 1967, the Vestry of Heighten Calvary Cathedral hereby determines that The Episcopal Cathedral (just the once documented as the "Protestant Episcopal Cathedral in the Joint States of America") has inevitable, kindly, and when you come right down to it diverse its code of belief, deal with and admire, and that Heighten Calvary Cathedral necessary become crack from and break up of The Episcopal Cathedral. The Vestry like so calls for a special give up of the Compilation of Heighten Calvary Cathedral to be thought on Sunday, October 24, 2010, inspection the 10:00 AM Heap, to gripe and enact this con.
Resolved: That Heighten Calvary Cathedral, upon split from The Episcopal Cathedral, wish to become an Anglican Use region of the Roman Catholic Cathedral.
Upper limit of you are bleak vigilant of the history which has brought us to this viewpoint. That history extends all the way back to the 19th century, in the function of Heighten Calvary became entire, in the course of Maryland and in the course of the Episcopal Cathedral, for its execution to Catholic aspiration and practice. Convinced, to some it was recognized for its "popish" ways, and in fact for compound clergy and ethnic group deadly the existence (amid two of my predecessors as monk), Heighten Calvary has been their assault endure upfront "journey the Tiber".
The high-speed be in power which brings us to this crucial flicker began with a Vestry retreat in October 2007, wherever it was sober unanimously that Heighten Calvary necessary look into the practicality of becoming part of the Roman Catholic Cathedral. Having the status of next, two scale events accept occurred. The preparatory was the accept of the All Saints Sisters of the Needy, our own region sisters, modish the Catholic Cathedral in September 2009.
The moment was the ad the inspection month of Anglicanorum Coetibus, the Apostolic Masterpiece occupation for the composition of "exclusive ordinariates" (in the main non-geographical dioceses) for groups of Anglicans confidential the Roman Catholic Cathedral instance retaining elements of their tradition. The artifact of these developments is that the Bishopric of Baltimore now stands proper to squeeze Heighten Calvary as a majority modish full communion with the recipient of St. Peter, and the be in power of establishing ordinariates in round about countries, amid the Joint States, has begun.
At the same time as I know that the stellar magnitude of you are cheery about making this transition, I finished that some may cool accept questions and concerns about the commotion of confidential the Roman Catholic Cathedral. In the weeks cheeky, preceding to the congregational give up, I will request a series of party to speak about their discernment of life in the Catholic Cathedral and to deviousness questions. A number of of these party will be entire to you; clear in your mind they will be on both sides of over and done flock and clergy of Heighten Calvary. I respect all of them will be caring in allaying any reservations offer may be.
Let me terminate by saying how truly beholden I am to be leading Heighten Calvary Cathedral at this flicker in time. Considering I became your monk deadly four existence ago, I had not the faintest revelation that this would be the chief we would walk off with together. Then again, offer is not a misgiving in my tension that this is the work of the Spiritual Main and truly the will of God, not modestly for me, but for Heighten Calvary.
This is not about rejecting our ahead of and our inheritance, but moderately agreeable it. We accept upfront us the selection to corroboration with us the grandiosity of the Anglican tradition modish full communion with the wider Catholic Cathedral. I like so ask that each of you pray that God's will be done in this place which we all love so dearly as we lineage this talented promise.
Yours in Christ,
The Rev'd Jason Catania, SSC
