Associate Membership of the Ordinariate

A message from the Ordinary
Bishop David Waller

I have become aware of a large number of Catholics who have made the Ordinariate mass their regular place of worship, yet for one reason or another are not able - or don't feel able - to join as Ordinariate members.

In the development of Associate Members I want to highlight the valuable contributions made by numerous Catholics to many of our Ordinariate communities.

This is a great way of acknowledging your support, welcoming you into the wider fellowship of the Personal Ordinariate, and keeping you in touch with Ordinariate events.

With my thanks, prayers and blessings,

+ David Waller

The Ordinariates are bidden to become:

families of charity and peace, working in service of the poor,
centres for Christian unity and reconciliation,
communities which welcome and evangelize, teaching the Faith in all its fullness,
celebrating the liturgy and sacraments with prayerful reverence
and maintaining a distinctive patrimony of Christian faith and culture.

Associate Membership is a way of supporting the Personal Ordinariate of Our Lady of Walsingham, sharing in its aims and worship. It is open to any adult in full communion with the Roman Catholic Church.

Becoming an Associate Member of the Ordinariate is a way of more closely identifying with the life and mission of the Ordinariate, byway of support, both in prayer and in other ways. In particular, Associates will be kept informed of the Ordinariate’s activities.

By completing these forms, the Ordinariate can also put you in touch with your nearest congregation, if you are not already participating.

There is no charge for becoming an Associate Member, but please do consider supporting the Ordinariate financially by enclosing a donation with your enrolment form. If you are eligible, please complete the Gift Aid declaration. We can also send you a form if you would like to make a regular commitment by Standing Order.
