My guess is that almost everyone interested in an "Anglican Use" would be interested ONLY in Rite I, but that the politics of the protocol demanded the Rite II inclusion (pardon the pun!). I do like the three new Lord's Day Prefaces (one of God the Father, of God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit: in BOTH Rites) . . . typical Anglican "succinctness" and beautiful language.
Also unfortunate that they had to put the modern words of consecration in the middle of that lovely Coverdale version of the Roman Canon.
Interesting, however, that the then-Cardinal Ratzinger, because of his Curial position, had to help work out the details of the "pastoral provision." No doubt he was familiar with a similar arrangement (though NOT with its own liturgy) worked out by Pius XII for some married Lutheran pastors in Germany in the 1950s.
I know this is off topic, but I'm not sure where else I can post this. I have a friend I have been turning from paganism and introducing to Catholicism. She's interested in attending Mass. I cannot be there as I live in Virginia and she lives in the Atlanta area, basically I was hoping an Atlanta-area FReeper or two might be able to suggest a good, non-heterodox parish for her to go to. Anywhere in Atlanta or Lawrenceville, Cumming, Suwanee, Gainesville, Duluth, Dacula, any of those places would be fine. Can anyone help me out here?
Yeah..I noticed the changeover! It was a bit jarring.
But this is the first I've heard about a "Coverdale" Roman Canon. Was this an older translation that the pastoral provision used?
