The ordinariate for former Anglican clergy and lay Catholics in the UK will have its first bishop leader, the Vatican announced Monday.
Fr. David Waller will become the Ordinariate of Our Lady of Walsingham’s second ordinary, and its first bishop.
Waller’s appointment, like his pending consecration as bishop, signals the English ordinariate’s growing stability after more than a decade of existence, and is a “vote of confidence” from Rome, according to a senior priest of the ordinariate.
