There is certainly an Anglican Shrine at Walsingham.

The phrase “All May, Some Should, None Must” (as it is usually expressed) is normally applied to the concept of auricular confession in Anglicanism. While it might be applied to other things non *de fide * (and finding something in Anglicanism that is actually de fide would take some doing), it is not normally so used. Marian issues would fall under the concept of personal piety, generally.

It is probably just different depending on who you talk to or what country you are in.

Here’s one the articles that I have read recently about this:

episcopalstmatthew.org/Sermons/dormition.html

I only added (name removed by moderator)ut because I had been doing some reading about this prior to seeing this thread.

GKC, You have certainly through all the posts of yours I’ve read drastically altered my view of Anglicanism (in a good way). Before the only experience I’ve had with Anglicanism was the few Episcopal churches in my area (which allow their churches to be used for Ba’ahi(spl?), Muslim, and Pagan worship:(). So I just wanted to say thanks for making me realize that not all Anglicans have gone the way of the Episcopal church.

You are very welcome. But keep in mind that not all Episcopalians still in the Church are happy with the path the Episcopal Church is taking, to the edge of the cliff and over. And of those who are, some are no more than ecumenical protestants in their basic belief.

But, in general, I could not set foot in an Episcopal Church any more.

Again, thank you.

So when the host turns into flesh and blood, that’s proof that Jesus is real?? I dont know if I can believe that…unless it bled on me and turned to flesh right before my very eyes.
Then you could call me Catholic 😉

Mary at Fatima asked us to consecrate ourselves to her heart.

That means, we become a part of her essence, the heart symbolizing the essence of a person.

I have devotion to both the Immaculate Heart of Mary and the Sacred Heart of Jesus.

Mary protects our faith when we consecrate ourselves to her and her heart…she protects our faith in Christ. She brings us that much closer to His Heart, to be more one with Him. With this devotion is tied to Holy Communion.

Think of the Eucharistic miracles…recently a consecrated host was dropped on the floor. It was placed in a glass of water in the sacristry. When someone returned to attend to its proper care, the host had turned into flesh and blood.

The speciman was taken to an independent diagnostic lab. It was found to be of the human heart and the blood a rare form of AB.

The speciman was then sent to New York for further diagnostics, and when it was examined, the flesh was beating.

I don’t need to have these events support or sustain my faith in the Eucharist, but they come up, and it is cause for reflection.

There is nothing of Mary in the sacraments. But Christ received His flesh and blood from His mother.

The Eucharistic Miracle of Lanciano

Then Jesus told him, “Because you have seen me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.”

John 20:29

For those who believe no explaination is necessary. For those who do not believe no explaination is possible.
