ANGLICAN RITE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH
A constituent patriarchal Church that was part of the merger
of the modern United Roman-Ruthenian Church.
The
Anglican Patriarchate of Rome (Anglican Rite Roman Catholic Church) was a patriarchate that was Old Roman
Catholic and Pontifical Orthodox of the Anglican Rite in heritage,
tradition, and practice. It was under the Apostolic See of Saints Stephen and
Mark. It grew out of the Metropolitan Archdiocese of the Southwest when it was recognized as a patriarchate in 2011. Then it merged with other jurisdictions in 2023 into the United Roman-Ruthenian Church, under the Holy Apostolic See of Sts. Peter, Andrew, Stephen, and Mark, shepherded by the Roman-Ruthenian Pope.
The patriarchate combined with the Gallo-Russo-Byzantine Catholicate,
and the joint patriarchal jurisdiction became known as the Catholicate
of Rome-Ruthenia. The Anglican Patriarchate was recognized as autocephalous in 2011, stemming from the autocephaly of the Metropolitan See recognized in 2008 and 2009. Its name notwithstanding, it was neither part of the Anglican Communion nor a "continuing Anglican" church.
The Anglican Patriarchate of Rome used both the Anglo-Roman liturgy (in Latin and English) and the Anglican-Byzantine liturgy. Both forms follow traditional theology and liturgical practices. The Anglo-Roman Rite derives from the pre-1954 Tridentine liturgy with Anglican elements and practices. The Anglican-Byzantine Rite is derived from the Gallo-Russo-Byzantine liturgy, likewise with Anglican elements and practices. These liturgical forms are maintained in the United Roman-Ruthenian Church. For more about liturgy, please visit the church's liturgical page here.
