Anglican Use Society of Orange County

Of your charity, I ask that if you know anyone in Orange County who might be interested, to forward on the announcement that the first meeting to officially form the Anglican Use Society of Orange County will be on Sunday, April 3, at 6pm at Blessed Sacrament Episcopal Church in Placentia, CA.

Blessed Sacrament will be having an Ecumenical Evensong and Benediction, with Fr Al Baca, the Vicar for Ecumenism for the Roman Catholic Diocese of Orange, speaking about Anglicanorum Coetibus.

At that meeting, there will be a sign-up sheet where people who are committed to officially forming the Anglican Use Society of Orange County can add their names, which will be collected and sent to both Cardinal Wuerl's office and to Bishop Brown's of the Diocese of Orange.

This is the first step towards the eventual founding of an Anglican Ordinariate parish in Orange County, but we need the word spread far and wide so that as many people who are interested and in the area can attend.
