If he wishes, he can convert to Catholicism, become an ordained Priest, and still remain married. I believe there is a special dispensation in the Catholic Church for such situations.

Personally, for the parishioners' (and the Anglican Church's) sake, I'm just hoping the Anglican Church boots out the ECUSA and embraces these six "rogue" parishes.

Correct, it's called the Anglican Dispensation. I don't recall when it was put into place, but I suspect that it was about the time that the Anglican church allowed female ordination.

The Six could do far worse than to jump ship and move to Benedict's Catholic Church - because the cafeteria is now closed...
