Thanks to Benedict XVI, ordinariates have offered former Anglicans, Episcopalians, and Methodists a pathway to enter communion with the Catholic Church while retaining much of their English patrimony. Just over 10 years after its founding, the Ordinariate of the Chair of Saint Peter numbers 11,255 faithful, 81 priests, seven seminarians, and 36 parishes and communities in 15 states and three Canadian provinces.
