Hi,
I didn’t know where to put this. I hope this is ok.

Can some one please explain the Angelical ordinate to me?

I know that some of their congregations are welcomed into the CC. How is this done? Do the priests have to be ordained Catholic?

Are they allowed to keep their own liturgy?

Is their liturgy the same or similar to ours?

Does any one know what their liturgy consists of?

What about their ordination of women bishops?

Are they obedient to the Pope?

What or who is the US head of the Angelical ordinate? And what would his job be?

Is there something I can read to educate my self on the subject?

I know too many questions. Any help will be appreciated

Thanks

This wasn’t one of your question, but the main thing to know is that they are Roman Catholics (not Anglicans).

Yes, that is my understanding, after they go through the Adult version of the CCC and believe our theology then they are excepted in the Roman Catholic Church.

They’re not even necessarily former Anglicans.

You make a good point.

Of course, former Anglicans (and potential former Anglicans) are the reason for having the Ordinariates. 🙂
