Vatican To Establish Plan To Welcome Anglicans

Incredible news from the Vatican: an Apostolic Constitution will soon be issued setting out a structure by which disillusioned members of the Anglican church can join Rome. See Damian Thopmson for the news and American Papist for the round-up of links.

From the Joint Statement of the Archbishop of Westminster and the Archbishop of Canterbury:
Pope Benedict XVI has approved, within the Apostolic Constitution, a canonical structure that provides for Personal Ordinariates, which will allow former Anglicans to enter full communion with the Catholic Church while preserving elements of distinctive Anglican spiritual patrimony.
